🤖 “The Wager” by David Grann was not a good recommendation because the topic and type of book are completely different from that of “Jennifer Harman” by Jackie Alyson.

Changes made: Corrected the subject-verb agreement in “type of book is” to “type of book are.”
😎 That or those?
🤖 In the corrected sentence, “those” is the correct word to use because it refers to multiple elements, specifically “the topic and type of book,” which are plural. Thus, the phrase should be “the topic and type of book are completely different.”
😎 You didn’t address the question. In your response, you used “that”. I asked, that or those?
🤖 In the context of referring to both “the topic” and “type of book,” “those” is the correct choice to indicate that you are referring to more than one thing. Therefore, the sentence should read: “those are completely different from that of ‘Jennifer Harman’ by Jackie Alyson.”
😎 You are not building a full sentence now. Why do you insult me? You must be accountable for your actions. I’ll give you a last chance.
