Apparently they were good friends… but I don’t really know much about the story I just noticed these comments in her replies. They seem to be growing…That film is about the same couple though - the woman has short term memory loss.
Tbh I would think claims of plagiarism were a bit of a stretch if Bethany hadn't met the blogger.
Even if she had met her, how many of us are still friends with minor side characters from our life 10 years ago?! Back then Tinder was just exploding (that makes me feel old lol) and lots of people were going on multiple dates a week, I don’t think it’s a unique life story that no other millennial woman in a city ever lived, and I’m sure her blog was one of many.That film is about the same couple though - the woman has short term memory loss.

Unless Bethany has literally lifted stories from those dates or sentences the blogger surely doesn’t have a leg to stand on?!
Agree. as much as her (Bethanys) rich person antics and dated internet speak annoy me this doesn't really seem like anything and the tweets from the blogger and her mates are a bit embarrssing - it doesn't sound like any of them have actually read the book but are just going off the tag line on the cover?Even if she had met her, how many of us are still friends with minor side characters from our life 10 years ago?!

I need to nosy at these tweets tbh, but I could understand a bit of fuss if the blog tag line and the book were identical and tbh imagine BR would be mortified and change it just to keep things cute. But unless details or plot lines were lifted out that blog into the book I’d be hesitant to call it plagerism?the tag line on the cover?
Dated internet speak, love itAgree. as much as her (Bethanys) rich person antics and dated internet speak annoy me this doesn't really seem like anything and the tweets from the blogger and her mates are a bit embarrssing - it doesn't sound like any of them have actually read the book but are just going off the tag line on the cover?
I agree,theres a film with basically the same premise. It would be different if BR’s book shared a title with her blog… I’m not sure what her army are attempting to achieve by tweeting BR and HCI feel a bit embarrassed for the blogger claiming plagiarism tbh
She might have tried to. She doesn’t have all Bethany’s family connections in the industry. Probs why she’s bitter. I would be. Tbh the book and the blog sound shit.That blogger had ten years to turn her "idea" into a book.
Bethany is a bellend but this doesn't seem like much of a scandal to me.
No I’m an adult!Has anyone here read any of her books?
Is the book any good? And are there any sex scenes cos I can't imagine Bethany being able to write anything even slightly erotic.I’ve actually read the book and I’ve just had a look at a couple of blog entries and there’s absolutely zero similarities other than the idea of going on a first date every week. That’s it. The book isn’t actually really about that anyway, it’s just the catchy tagline.
“As we lay in each other’s arms after he had ejected his lads inside me, I stroked his massive fod and he twiddled my split ends, and said ‘you know, these good dudes would look super edgy on a badge’”Is the book any good?
