Sinopsis

Gill and Brolly live together off South London’s Walworth Road. They share a happy existence, unremarkable except for one thing – their excessive food intake.After witnessing their best friend Tiny Tim eat himself to death, Brolly decides he and Gill should lose weight before suffering the same fate – but Gill refuses. Brolly starts dieting in secret and sets off a series of unpredictable events that will change their lives forever.According to the House of Commons Library*, almost three quarters of people aged between forty-five and seventy-four in the UK are obese. The Wobble Club is a thought provoking and unforgettable debut from agent provocateur and cult filmmaker Simon Rumley that investigates society’s last taboo: whether people should be allowed to do what they want with their own bodies.*Source: NHS Digital, Health Survey for England, published January 2023

    I am Lady Assassin Krunch. Okay, not really. But I'm dressed like her at the CosPlay Con I waited forever to attend. And I play her in the live action role play group I belong to. It's nerdy. I'm aware. But there's not a lot to do for a socially awkward pharmacy technician from Fargo, North Dakota. 
     
     
     
    My life is lonely and boring . . . until I get sucked into a portal through my phone at the Con and tossed into an alternate time on an alien planet. 
     
     
     
    Turns out I am Assassin Krunch after all because this planet makes all your desires come true. Except, I sort of crash landed in the middle of an alien wedding and now Gamalt, the priest of Tala Furi, who is also the groom, thinks I'm his fated mate. And his fiancé—ex?—wants me dead. 
     
     
     
    I may have accidentally started a war. Oops. 
     
     
     
    Gamalt has magic hair and his body lights up like a holiday tree when we touch. He says it means we're meant to be together. I think he has a screw loose. Fine, so he's hot for an alien. But I just want to go home. 
     
     
     
    But my desires could cost Gamalt his life, and the choices I make will have consequences that even Assassin Krunch can't fix. What was that I was saying about my life being boring? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    The strongest bodybuilder in Emerson isn’t a match for my focus. 
    Emerson Dance is one of the most prestigious dance companies in the country. And I got kicked off the team right before nationals because my curves don’t “fit.” Not their idea of a perfect dancer's body and definitely not their costume. 
    I’m going to enter the competition on my own and show them that every body is a dancer’s body. It will mean practicing in the gym with the bodybuilders, but I can shove my nerves - and my attraction to Carter McCormac – aside long enough to win. 
    My reputation, and my future, depend on it. 
    If you love girls who buck the rules and guys strong enough to lift them up, you’ll love Curvy Girls Can’t Dance, a standalone romance in The Curvy Girl Club! Grab your copy and fall in love today!
