To me, the absolute ickiest part is that Islay's book Games We Play is clearly heavily influenced by Eros (she even put him in her acknowledgements) and looking with this new perspective of how disrespectful and cruel she is, her use of Eros' sexual assualt as a kid as inspiration for her character is so troubling.
It seems like their responses are like "well we are WOMEN! He is a MAN! Don't you believe women?" Totally ignoring that Jaclyn is a woman and Eros is literally just using his platform to get help. Its unethical and her attitude is bizzare. The similarities of the scenes I read between her and Jaclyn's work and the similarities between her work and Sarah J Maas are too much. Dana Islay's response is basically "Well you can't copyright IDEAS" and really at this point I don't really care if legally she is covered. She keeps posting nasty videos/tweets and then deleting them and its been so wild to witness. Willow Winters (friend of Islay) immediately jumped on Eros and accused him of being a man that just wants to bring a successful woman down and basically sent her followers on a witch hunt. He has posted a lot of proof on his (free) Patreon and Tik Tok yet people are attacking him.
He is vo.eros on audible) is trying to bring it to the publics attention.
The TLDR version is that Dana Islay has allegedly plagiarized the work of Jaclyn Kelso (user on TikTok) and voice actor Eros (worked closely with Islay. So I am on BookTok and Twitter and have been so disgusted by Dana Islay and Willow Winters that they're off my shelf forever.
