Thia: an Eldritch Slice of Life

Bol

"The autistic, lesbian, eldritch god love story you didn't know you needed."When a grief-stricken father accidentally summons an unfathomable cosmic deity into the body of his dead daughter...Nobody seems to notice.Alien logic? Incomprehensible behaviour? "...Isn't that just Thia being Thia?"Told through the detached, descriptionless perspective of an Observer from Beyond, Tejay Liao's genre-defying debut novel explores the life-and afterlife-of a strange girl who gets replaced by something even stranger.IT is an eldritch being of perfect precision. IT never acts without a contract. IT scores full marks on Social Communication Disorder assessments. All of which helps IT pass as Thia. Mostly.Amy feels like something is different about her best friend. Ever since the car crash, Thia has been acting weird... even by Thia standards. But Amy's not sure whether that means her childhood friend has become an all-powerful eldritch god, or whether she's just autistic. The signs point both ways. And either way, Amy loves her. So why fuss the little things?Instead of worrying about where Thia falls on the divine spectrum, Amy would rather focus on making her happy. And finding a way to stay by her side forever. Even if IT insists that forever is a price that no one can pay.Funny, tender, and unexpectedly moving, this avant-garde character drama blends cosmic mythos with neurodivergence, queer romance, personal growth, and the comedy of an eldritch god misunderstood.
