#SuperTrouper

"Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely
Part of a success that never ends
...
There are moments when I think I'm going crazy."
#SuperTrouper

By the time The Beatles played their iconic gig at Shea Stadium, these lyrics would have probably felt all too familiar. Their American tour made memories of a lifetime for a generation of fans, but it also put a lot of stress on the four young boys from Liverpool.

Meredith3 I can‘t imagine how stressful the spotlight would be! 😰 6y

#abbainaugust #supertrouper

So going with the “spotlight” take on Super Trouper... this romance series is about a group of young adults who grew up in the spotlight because they‘re the children of reality tv stars. Like the Kardashians I guess? This first one is a M/M romance between Max and his bodyguard. Note: all the books by these authors are super explicit, lots of romping!

Centique Cool note: Krista and Becca Ritchie are a twin writing duo! They‘re also self publishers; although they‘ve been offered deals they‘ve turned them down to do their own thing. They do a really professional job and have a big following. Fascinating to see how they do it if the publishing industry is an interest of yours. 6y
emilyhaldi Lots of romping!!!😆 I love it! Cool story about the authors too 👯‍♀️ 6y
CarolynM Sounds like my kind of thing. Stacked 6y

Reviewsbylola I love reality tv. I‘ll have to look these up. 6y
Centique @CarolynM my favourite one of theirs was Amour Amour. I‘ll be interested to see what you think! It‘s a YA vibe but quite a lot of depth to the relationships around the main characters which I liked. 6y
Centique Thanks @emilyhaldi 😘. @Reviewsbylola I think this one has spun off from the first series (about the original stars who began the reality tv series). 6y
Meredith3 Sexy sexy! 6y
Reggie Probably gonna read the Armour Armour one soon thanks to your post. So excited!!! 6y
Centique @Reggie yay! I hope you like it 😍😍😍 6y
CarolynM I've stacked Amour Amour too. Thank you 6y
batsy "lots of romping" love that description ? 6y
Centique @batsy yes! Im all for making up my own euphemisms 😂😂 6y
Mdargusch Haha 😂 “romping” 6y
Cinfhen Just chuckling over the romping 😜❣️ 6y
Centique @Cinfhen @Mdargusch well I‘m here all month for your entertainment! 😂😂 6y
Cinfhen EXCELLENT!! I look forward to more euphemisms 💟 6y

Kalalalatja @emilyhaldi @Reviewsbylola I‘m not sure you would like it - YA fantasy doesn‘t strike me as your genre 😄 6y
Mdargusch Um definitely not their genre @Kalalalatja 😂 @Reviewsbylola @emilyhaldi 6y
Reviewsbylola It‘s def not. 😂😂😂 6y
Cinfhen So, I‘m guessing it‘s not for me either!?! 😜😂 6y
Kalalalatja @Cinfhen no, 100% no 😂 6y

I discovered via Google yesterday that a #supertrouper as mentioned in this song is actually the type of spotlight following the performer on stage... Makes so much sense now!! ( @jenniferw88 also noted this fun fact 😉) So my first thought was of Dumplin' up on stage competing in her beauty pageant. I wasn't a huge fan of this book but not sure I can resist the movie that will start Jennifer Aniston!❤️

Haven't read the book or seen the second movie yet but the first was hysterical. Frist think that came to mind for today's prompt was the movie lucked out with the book find

emilyhaldi I watched this movie SO many times in college 🤣🤣 6y
Meredith3 Such a great movie! 6y
Reviewsbylola I think my bff was going to watch the second movie the other night. I‘ll have to ask her how she liked it. 6y
Mdargusch I have never heard of this movie? 🤷🏼‍♀️ 6y

Jamie‘s infectious enthusiasm jumps off the page in this Super Food cookbook, and the recipes are healthy, simple and do-able. Plus his books are always gorgeously designed - the photography is mouthwatering!
In the accompanying tv show, Jamie visits areas of the world with the healthiest lifestyles, and learns from their philosophies. Not dissimilar to my current read, The Blue Zones....which is fascinating 👍

emilyhaldi He is quite charming ☺️😍 6y

Many a police and #supertrouper worked on solving the mystery of the the Golden State Killer. The author of a book about this killer, Michelle McNamara, spent years researching these horrendous crimes and wrote this compelling true crime book trying to provide some answers. #abbainaugust

jillrhudy Wasn‘t she the one who passed away, who was married to Patton Oswalt? 6y
mom2bugnbee @jillrhudy Yes. Patton wrote the afterword for the book. Such a shame that she passed before they caught the GSK. 6y
