LOS ANGELES - Ingram Book Group (La Vergne, TN) has reached an agreement to serve as the primary distributor of the controversial novel "My Fractured Life" by Rikki Lee Travolta.

The move allows customers fast delivery of the behind-the-scenes story of the seedy side of Hollywood to virtually any bookstore or library worldwide.

Ingram maintains inventory on an estimated 650,000 titles, with additional access to materials representing thousands of publishers and imprints. Ingram Library Services maintains a National Book Clubs Standing Order Program that supplies selections of the Today Show's "Today Book Club," Good Morning America's "Read This!" program, the USA Today Book Club, and the "Reading with Ripa" light fiction program of Live with Regis and Kelly.

"Rikki Lee Travolta has a charisma people identify with, My Fractured Life is a book that word of mouth is steamrolling contagious interest for,” says Drake Miezel, president of Prime Time Entertainment Management. “Ingram Book Group is a proven leader at meeting wholesale demand and will be perfect for getting My Fractured Life into every reader's hands."

Serving an international clientele of bookstores and libraries, Ingram has expanded its customer service center to 24-hour-a-day operation.

"We don’t want customers to ever have to worry about what time it is when they want to do business with Ingram," stated Steve Pate, vice president of sales and operations, in a prepared statement announcing the move to 24-hour order customer care and fulfillment staffing.

"My Fractured Life" has been favorably compared to New York Times Best Sellers "Postcards from the Edge" by Carrie Fisher and "If Chins Could Kill" by B-movie actor Bruce Campbell for its honest insight into the underbelly of Hollywood in reviews at Amazon.com, and at Barnes & Nobel.

Ingram Book Group is a leading wholesaler of trade books, spoken audio, and magazines to booksellers, librarians, and specialty retailers. Its operating units include Ingram Book Company; Ingram Periodicals, Inc.; Ingram International, Inc.; Ingram Library Services, Inc.; Spring Arbor Distributors, Inc.; Tennessee Book Company; Ingram Fulfillment Services, Inc.; and Ingram Customer Systems, Inc.
