there are some ways to avoid multiple relations by using if-else columns to eliminate unwonted data

@wiz Did you do this part? In particular, the text component with the ‘Show New Screen’ → ‘This Item’?

Your Show New Screen action is pointing to the relation. It is NOT using ‘This Item’ like I indicated above that it should. Switch it to use ‘This Item’ so you get a new detail screen that’s still attached to the same book row. There you can build out the detail screen with author details and an inline list of related books.
