Nick would rather write fanfiction about the feats of heroism and romantic entaglements he imagines for the very real superheroes who inhabit his city. When he meets Nova City's biggest hero (and his biggest crush), however, he resolves to become a superhero himself.
If being the most popular fanfiction writer in the Extraordinaries fandom was a superpower, Nick Bell would be a hero. Instead he's just a fanboy with ADHD, posting online. After a chance encounter with Shadow Star, Nova City's mightiest hero (and Nick's biggest crush), he sets out to make himself extraordinary. And he'll do it with or without the reluctant help of Seth Gray, Nick's best friend (and maybe the love of his life). -- adapted from jacket and Amazon info

I'll definitely read the sequel submitted by Susan4Pax -prev. sueij- on August 9, 2023, 11:02am This Y/YA novel is a very fun romp through an ADHD teen’s life as it intersects his worship of local superheroes, love, loss, and a very frustrated father who is just trying to keep Nick showing up to school and doing his homework. It reminds me of the clever framework of Brandon Sanderson’s teen protagonist in the Reckoners trilogy, and I’ll definitely be reading the second book.
