The stage was set completely wrong. The book cover behind her should have been Children of Anguish and Anarchy. Instead, it was Look For Me There.

[@eringourdine]

I absolutely enjoyed this episode, but I am so sorry to say this lady is a plagiarizer. She did not write those books. She is a complete liar. I am baffled. She and AsherVon from the Voice are crooks, and thieves. Lord have mercy on them and forgive only those that you can.🙏💅

Hi, I'm curious what you mean by she plagiarized the books? Do you mean the idea of the story? Because I did see a bit of Avatar the last Airbender in the first one. Or do you mean someone else's specific works she took?
