The Joy Luck Club meets American Psycho in this darkly comic debut novel starring Fi, an ambitious young lawyer who will stop at nothing to avoid being married off into a life of suburban boredom.

Meet Fi. A 28 year old lawyer with a six figure salary and an 80 hour working week, Fi has no intention of being another pretty, passive Hello Kitty type, stuck on a conveyor belt of kids, cooking and cleaning. It's just a shame her parents won't stop setting her up with undesirable men.

Meet Sean. Fi's childhood best friend and teenage delinquent, he's now a very successful surgeon. But there's something you should know about Sean. Some men cook in their spare time, others play sport. Sean kills people.

Meet Freddie, Fi's blind date. Poor Freddie. This really isn't going to end well...

About the author

Angela S. Choi

Angela S. Choi is a writer who lives in San Francisco, California. Born in Hong Kong, she is proficient in both Cantonese and English. She practiced law until she no longer wanted to live life in six-minute increments, and so took up the pen at the tender age of 30. When she is not writing, she spends her time molesting her fat parakeet, Meatball, who is arguably the best toe-nibbler in the world. Hello Kitty Must Die is her debut novel.

Praise for Hello Kitty Must Die

A demonic stir-fry of influences, including Chuck Palahniuk and Candace Bushnell, infuses Choi's prose with passionate ferocity

Publishers Weekly

Now that serial killers have become the new 21st-century heroes, fans of Jeff Lindsay's 'Dexter' series and Chuck Palahniuk's hard-core novels are the readers most likely to enjoy this book

Library Journal

Choi wields her satirical blade at a host of targets...The real triumph of Hello Kitty Must Die is that it refuses to apologize for Fiona's behavior

Los Angeles Times

Dark and strange...and funny
