Superfan

SUPERFAN riveted me. I was a frog being boiled as Zhang pulled me page by page into the book's orbit, with writing that is deceptively perceptive, yearning, and engaging all at once. SUPERFAN is not only an insightful examination of the all-encompassing natures of fandom and stardom, it's a story about ultimately learning to feel whole.

As catchy, appealing, and achingly tender as a boy band's hit ballad, Superfan dazzles and captivates, while raising vital questions about fandom, celebrity, and the performance of self. Jenny Tinghui Zhang captures the complexities of emerging adulthood in all its tenuous glory.

Superfan was addictive and seductive. It perfectly captures the loneliness of youth, the allure of online community, and the dangers of obsession. I read it and immediately wanted to recommend it to all of my friends.

Breathtaking and heartfelt, SUPERFAN is a cosmic collision of two fractured lives pulled into each other’s orbit through an astonishing series of events. With an eye for both the personal and the universal, Zhang reveals how the past and present versions of ourselves can never be outrun—with consequences as devastating as they are redemptive. SUPERFAN doesn’t just redefine the fan-star relationship, it explodes it from the inside out.
