About the author

Clinical psychologist, Professor at West Chester University - and passionate fangirl! Fan psychology and the benefits of fandom are my research interest, Supernatural is my forever favorite show and The Boys (and Gen V) are my current favorites. When I'm passionate about something, I love writing/editing books about it, which explains the six books on Supernatural (the most recent two including the show's actors' unique perspectives) and the new book on The Boys (with chapters from psychologists, sociologists, media experts and journalists that take a deep dive into the show's fascinating characters, plus exclusive interviews with the talented actors who bring them to life).

If you're passionate about being a fan or some of the best shows out there, dig in!
