#like I missed the secret epilogue where the whole story switched countries

why does there need to be separate US and UK versions of a book
like you’re telling me if an American sees a British name and references they’re going to be like FUCK now the atmosphere is ruined this is written by a Brit! I don’t understand any references because I only pay attention to my own country!
or a British person sees American references they’ll go BLIMEY GOVERNOR, ITS SET OUTSIDE THE MONARCHY, BLASPHEMY! BURN IT!
it’s weird and distracting in a series where you pick up a US book for the first two and a UK book for the last one suddenly we’re in a new country and everywhere has different names and I’m starting to wonder if I’m losing it or if there was something problematic about basic ass names
#I’m reading agggtm#I think that’s the acronym idk#anyway#it was Fairview first two books now we’re in fucking little kilton or something.#first books mentioned an America uni#last book is suddenly a prestigious British one#thought I was losing it#like I missed the secret epilogue where the whole story switched countries#do British people need books set in UK and Americans need books set in the USA? no that’s ridiculous. why is it like this#that’s like making a kiwi version set in Hamilton (derogatory) where they stop by the dairy and the warehouse#that would be weird#as an average person I can assure you I know how to read books set in locations outside my country#like if you’re publishing different versions for spelling fine#BUT LOCATION??? WHYYYY
