Will I love I'm a Fan?

I love this book, and it caused a big splash on publication.

The novel takes a highly individual look at one woman’s twin obsessions–a man she is having an affair with and his sometime lover, a woman whom the narrator obsessively follows via social media. On the one hand, it’s a story of infatuation and obsession, about how you can lose sight of yourself in the desire for another. On the other, it’s about how social media and capitalism can combine to diminish us all.

I thoroughly enjoyed it–it’s dark, racy and thought-provoking.

Possibly one of the most chaotic and entertaining books I have ever read, it tells the story of a woman utterly transfixed not just by the man she is having an affair with – a married man – but also one of the other women that man is also having an affair with, referred to throughout as ‘the woman I am obsessed with’.

Patel’s highly engrossing and visceral writing will call you out, make you laugh, and leave you desperate to keep reading all at once.
