{"product_id":"9780008738198","title":"Hari Kumar, Ultimate Superstar : Book 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eSusan Bliss is torn between two lives.                                   Her husband Alcott has decided only one will be remembered.                       'A magnificent debut' CLARE LESLIE HALL          'Bruisingly gorgeous' KIRAN MILLWOOD HARGRAVE          'A truly sublime novel' HANNAH BEER          'Delivers heartache, euphoria and the unfathomable puzzle of family' SIERRA GREER                      It’s the 1990s.                       Susan Bliss is trying to make it all work. In L.A., she’s a burgeoning star with big hair and tight jeans, smouldering on the nation’s favourite TV drama. But in quiet New England, she’s wife to a history professor and raising two young twins, trying to keep the family on track. What she doesn't know is that there isn't enough time to do it all.                         It’s the 2000s.                       Viola and Sebastian can barely remember the woman who raised them, and their father has told them little of her fame.             But the past can’t stay hidden forever, and as the teenaged twins pursue the secrets Susan left behind, they spin off in different directions. Sebastian plunges down an investigative rabbit hole. And Viola falls for the movie star Orson Grey, who was once her mother's co-star.             A novel about obsession and ambition, about love and the myths we create for each other.             Everyone has their family secrets, but what happens when you aren't there to tell your story?                      What early readers are saying about Family Drama…                    ‘EXQUISITE! … I can’t wait to read this again and discuss it with my book clubs’          ‘A soap star mom living a double life … This book is fully of messy families, complicated women and just enough drama to keep things juicy!’          ‘A love story that has so many obstacles’          ‘Nostalgic, poetic … each storyline came back around in a circle’          ‘This book was written like a work of art’          ‘Wow. That was a hell of a debut … Her commentary on life, love and legacy felt thought-provoking and impactful’          ‘The writing in this novel pulls you in and the characters keep you there’          ‘Weaves together moments of heartbreak with scenes of high drama’          ‘A family drama that will pull you in from the beginning’                      Why booksellers love this book…                    ‘One of the most moving books I’ve read in a long time … It’s extraordinary when a debut novel is this good about family drama!’          ‘I cried for the lost childhoods, the struggle to find a middle ground. Please read this so we can talk’          ‘A story of sibling love, loss, and the cost of following your dreams … and all the drama that the title promises, this novel is a must-add for book club calendars’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Fallon\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 15\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 320 pages\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e N\/A\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e The Borough Press\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e HarperCollins Publishers\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 240 x 159\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780008738303\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rebecca Fallon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56405595160962,"sku":"9780008738198","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9780008738198.jpg?v=1775908868","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.com\/products\/9780008738198","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
