An enjoyable read, if more deeply than superficially - the premise is fun (the protagonist finds an unidentified blob in the garbage behind a bar, takes it home, and semi-inadvertently turns it into the perfect boyfriend, or is he etc. etc.) and it’s used to make some interesting points, but there’s some often clunky prose and dialogue and it’s sometimes hard to find what sets this apart from anything else. Maybe more a novella?
