Saying mom is very common up north.Good goshhhh they are both so vanilla why are they writing this. I have second-hand embarrassment for them
And why do they say mom? Not very common for the UK.
Fair enough. I live in Manchester and some people say mam but not mom I always thought it was American.Saying mom is very common up north.

I’m in Yorkshire and we don’t say “mom”, some people say “mam” as do my friends in the north east. But not mom.Fair enough. I live in Manchester and some people say mam but not mom I always thought it was American.
I've never listened to their podcast but will it just be a repetition of the stuff they have covered on that? Surely they don't have that many interesting life stories to fill a podcast and a book, Lizzy hardly does anything. Don't know much about Lindsay though.
I’ve never heard of anyone in the UK using the word mom! Also neither of them are Brummy or say mom. Are they trying to break into an American market?I’m in Yorkshire and we don’t say “mom”, some people say “mam” as do my friends in the north east. But not mom.
I have heard people from Birmingham say/write mom, though.

How did these bimbos get a book deal with RECYCLED content from a podcast?!? There are so many authors out there with creative writing degrees and/or talent that deserve this SO much more. I know that professional milestones are important for all of us, but what these two privileged white women should’ve done is pass on this and recommend a POC. They’ve already made a podcast on these subjects, what’s the point of the book then to just tick a box?Does it really matter whether they say mom, mum or mam? I would have thought the more noteworthy issue is that they are writing a book ...
The publishing industry is just as money-grubbing as any other, sadly.How did these bimbos get a book deal with RECYCLED content from a podcast?!?

Every opportunity has to be passed onto a POC now??How did these bimbos get a book deal with RECYCLED content from a podcast?!?

That was really more of an exaggeration. Obviously, not every opportunity needs to be offered to a POC, but what is the point of a companion book to a podcast that really doesn’t talk about anything noteworthy, ya know? Makes me think how The Anna Edit’s book was really just a collection of her blog posts, nothing really new or revolutionary.Every opportunity has to be passed onto a POC now??
Don't get me wrong I think this book will be awful and they only got a deal because of the number of followers they have = more money for the publishers. There's definitely more worthy people who would write a better book....
But saying they should have "passed the opportunity onto a POC" - how's that relevant here? They're writing about something related to their po dcast.
I'm as infuriated as you are. They don't deserve a book deal. They're barely readers (as in I don't believe they're capable of proper critical thinking when it comes to literature) and most importantly: THEY'RE NOT WRITERS.How did these bimbos get a book deal with RECYCLED content from a podcast?!?
