Welcome to the newest Fizz Hangout! Every Friday, you all can stop by the weekly Fizz Hangout post and ask questions (to us or to your fellow patrons), discuss recent bonus scenes and/or podcasts with each other, and catch up on all the goodies you might've missed!

HANGOUT QUESTION: we love seeing your response to questions about the Like Us series, and it helps facilitate some awesome discussions! Each week, there'll be a new "hangout question" that you can answer in the comments, if you wish! 

We'll be in Orlando at Shameless Book Con in a couple weeks, and in honor of the event, here's this week's question: 

What city, state, or country would you want us to visit for a book signing? This will help us see what kind of interest there is for certain areas! We're hoping to do at least 2 events a year (maybe 3 if our schedule allows it).

What we're scheduled to attend so far: Book Bonanza 2023 in Texas, a west coast event in 2023 (not announced yet), and an east coast event in 2024 (also not announced yet) 

WEEKLY RECAP

Hello, magical & super heroic beauties!! We hope you are having a cozy Friday filled with good books and your favorite cozy reading spot. October has been super fun for us TV lovers. We have the return of The Challenge, new shows like The Mole, The Midnight Club, Interview With A Vampire, and the Sunday night excitement of The House of the Dragon (Xander would be DYING over this show!). Also, if you watch and saw the twin brothers protecting the prince as his knights -- did you also think of Thatcher & Banks, or was it just us? 😂 

It feels like a TV lovers paradise this fall, but we are trying to focus because there's so much work to be done. We have a lot of stuff going on behind-the-scenes these days, and there's an announcement on the horizon that we hope is coming soon *crosses fingers and toes*. But more than anything, we want to thank all of you so much for pre-ordering & purchasing the new Berkley Romance edition of Ricochet 🥹💜 Seeing readers pick up this book means the absolute world to us, and we're so very grateful for your readership *hugs tight* 💖

Zoe Nepolello

I would die if you could make it to the Chicago or St. Louis area at some point 😍

Alice Berlin

Would love if you could make it to NYC (or the surrounding area)!!

Sarah

Does this mean Dishonestly comes out before NLU?

Andrea

Love that signings are back 🖤 do you ever do local events? I’m in the Atlanta area. But either way can’t wait to meet you at Shameless!!

Aamna

Guys come to Toronto 😭😭

Sascha

Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦❤️🥳

Lindsay Hunter

Gahhh, I feel like I would at least try to see the two of you anywhere! However, my top choices would have to be: Chicago, San Diego, Boston, & Philly (duhhhh). 🥹🥰🤞🏻

Yasti

Ahhh I currently live in Cape Town, which I know is a long shot, but that’s the dream! :) International fans really have it hard 😂

Theresa

Michigan would be awesome but honestly Chicago would be fine too since it's close enough.

Megan

Definitely come to Philadelphia! It's perfect because of the books and that only live 2 hours away 😄

Dani P

Boston! Also, a PLU question: I thought I read that People Like Us will cover up until the end of Fearless Like Us and not cover Infamous Like Us or the time jump. Do you guys have plans for that time frame? I'm SUPER curious for more about how Millie Kay came into their lives.

Laura

Spain or Europe in general!!🧡🧡🧡

Diana Medd

I would love it if you came to Boston!!!

Kelly Chase

Not related to the weekly question but if any of you are Taylor Swift fans I'm curious if you agree that Mastermind is the *most* Rose and Connor song. They immediately came to mind while I was listening to it the first time!

danny

London🥰

Debbie Greene

Hi all. Can anyone help me pin point the book/chapter for when Beckett confronts Farrow about his relationship with Maximoff? TYIA. Lately I've been rereading alot of key Cobalt scenes from various books: the dollhouse incident, Charlie's elevator breakdown and Connor's phone call convo bonus, all of the Wednesday night dinner scenes, the tree house scene, wee Beckett at ballet practice etc. Please feel free to mention your fave Cobalt scenes that I should reread. 😺

A spector

If you ever do Boston you should plan a side trip to Salem, for Kinney Hale research of course 👻 🎃 🌚🪦

Piper

Oregon!!!

Jazmin

CANADA!!!

🩰

Will the rest of special edition like us series be released in time for Christmas? Just curious 😻

kylie

san diego!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We love making our way out to California! Especially because our brother is there, so it's so nice to see him and see readers! ❤️

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We can't really answer this yet (we wish we could), but we'll have more news about next year's release schedule soon though!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We're limited to what we get invited to, but we're always interested in Atlanta events since we live here. An event in Atlanta was our very first signing too ☺️ We gotta keep our eyes peeled for more in ATL! We're so excited about seeing you at Shameless too, Andrea!! 🎉 🎉

Krista & Becca Ritchie

It covers Charming, Wild, and Fearless timeline. But if we find this to be a super success and everyone is enjoying PLU, we might extend it to Infamous or think about doing the same thing for the Infamous timeline ❤️ We'd definitely love to write more in the time jump area.

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We're not sure if they'll be released in time to get them shipped for Christmas 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Just listened to it, and I totally feel the Rose & Connor feels. All the fate vibes! Krista has been stuck on Anti-Hero. She says it gives Dishonesty Yours vibes ☺️ I've mostly been listening to Snow on the Beach (I listen to the same song on repeat way too much 😂)

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Beckett & Farrow confrontation is in Lovers Like Us on the tour bus. Chapter 9 ☺️

Teresa

Will you guys be doing a what to expect in 2023 podcast for the extra podcast this month or maybe in November?

Andressa Camille

Brazil, Ceará, Fortaleza. My country, state and city😂 I know people mostly go to Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, but I leave in the state with the most beautiful beachs in the country (even though Copacabana is the most famous).

Melissa

Philly ❤️

Nimasha

Melbourne Australia 💗💗

Rebekah

Alabama!! I would also love to see a Southern character in the books. Is there a bonus scene or is it in one of the books where Rose decides about her last name when she marries Connor? Someone asked this on the Facebook page and now I’m dying to read it or find it. Any help is appreciated. 🥰😂🥰

ann.nonymous

Hi! I'm just curious but is PLU going to be a weekly-release starting in Nov? Or is it only going to just be one chapter a month? It's going to replace the main bonus right?

Morgan

A booksigning in Ohio would be absolutely amazing. I'm not sure which city would be the best to visit or have an event in.

Darcy Paiva

The New York area! Or really anywhere within a couple hours from there would be awesome!

Sioned

It’s on Patreon and it’s called Addicted series bonus: Connor & Rose in Bora Bora. (Extended Epilogue of Kiss The Sky.) Have fun reading! 💓 (This one made me cry but all their books/most of their bonus do😂)

Sioned

That’s would be INCREDIBLE! I’d definitely go! (Gah! It’s such a pain isn’t it? but I’d put myself through that kind of torture for K&B)

Rebekah

Where on here? I’ve looked everywhere.

Abby (Eliot’s version)

You said West Coast and I got so excited hoping it was in Southern California cause I’d be there in an instant to meet you lovely ladies and gush all things Addicted and Like Us! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗 Also, thankyouthankyouthankyou for the last Bonus Scene with the Troublemakers 🎭👽🎸 it was EVERYTHING 🥰

Sioned

Patreon, I just looked it up so it’s still there

A spector

Question: Do the Rochesters own Celebrity Crush as part of Rochester Industries? They are supposed to be an entertainment company but that can come in many forms. I would have to reread and interpret every Celebrity Crush mention differently if this were true…

Stephanie

I was hoping you would do one of the RARE events in Europe next year!

Suzannah R

How about Asia 🥹🥹

Noreen Olmsted

San Diego, Ca. I'd love you girls did GRL one year (its in Virginia in 2023) but its only gay romance.

Rachel

Madison, WI!!!! Or maybe chicago?? Somewhere Midwest where I can visit 😍

Illyana

London is Calling FOR YOU! And when i say calling i don't mean Banshee or Syiren... that's high key me calling for you guys to come over! Hehe. And oo i LOVE that you guys are confirming about the stuff that we're watching as well! What do the famous ones think of The Midnight Club? The Mole? Hocus Pocus 2? What did Xander think of the Rings of Powers Finale?! What is Marrow currently watching? ;) And was Charlie low key tuning into Bravocon and watching the whole stuff that went down the Lisa Rinna and Kathy Hilton on RHOBH? These are the real life questions that NEED to be asked about :PP Smooches from across the pond ;) Laura xxx

Sarah

Seattle

Sioned

Love your questions!! Another Londoner! I live 20 minutes away from London so i wouldn’t have to travel far at all! xxx

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We'd really love to do one in Ohio eventually! We're always keeping our eye on events there and hoping the dates work out for us 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We can't really answer this without giving stuff away 😅 but you're highly likely to know within the series in future books 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We wish! Next year, we're not able to do another international trip (it conflicts with some personal obligations), but we really hope to do another RARE event!! We're keeping them on our minds, for sure 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

London is where you are, so our hearts are definitely want to be there! We really hope we can do a London signing (or somewhere close) in the future 💗 Krista finished The Midnight Club! I watched episode one and loved the characters, but she told me not much happens and so I'm thinking I might not continue it bc I have a lot of other shows I need to finish. I did watch all of The Mole! (Krista hasn't seen that one yet -- you can tell who watches more reality TV these days 😆) I loveeeed the Mole! I really hope they do another season. I was so impressed with the production and the challenges that they came up with. Have you seen it yet? Hocus Pocus 2, I am halfway through (Krista watched it without me 👿 I am salty about it lol She loved it though!) We commented above about Xander's thoughts on Rings of Power, and he would be a bit down on RoP as a book reader and intense lover of the lore. Marrow would be watching Interview with a Vampire and likely catching up on Superman & Lois (with Farrow side-eyeing him with a grin during it). OMG I have no idea the drama in RHOBH! Now I'm curious!! I'm only caught up on Real Housewives of Potomac (our fav) & NYC. I'm one season behind on The OC and wayyyy too many behind on Beverly Hills. *hugs & Luna glitter* xoxo B

Krista & Becca Ritchie

@Sioned, So many amazing readers in London!! We really need to go to a signing event there; we'd LOVE to see you!! 💗💗

Rebekah

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This just made my day!! ❤️❤️❤️

Illyana

I LOVE THE IDEA of you guys in London! I have the BEST restaurant for us all to go to (The Dalloway Terrace in Bloomsbury!). Only apt and in honour of Lily, Daisy, Rose (if you google you'll know why ;) ). And I STARTED POTOMAC since u guys recced it so much in Paris! It is SO GOOD?! I can't decide who's my favourite character... I see so much of Rose in Moinique and i kinda really like her. Gizelle is SUCH a pot stirer! And La Dame is... well iconic! i have yet to start the Mole I planned on watching it after Halloween month hehe! SO I will be prioritising The Midnight Club and report back on Friday's Fizz Hang out! And Krista netflix and cheated on you for Hocus Pocus 2?! BIG RED flag! :P (jk of course! hehe). And Rings of Power... Man... I have to agree with Xander... I was high key underwhelmed at how quickly they sped through 1,500 years in the episode finale. On top of that not have Sauron in his Elvish form not be a tall... blonde... dandy politician and was HUMAN?! And the shoehorned romance with Galadriel? Who i wasn't really invested in? *Sigh* What do you guys think? I bet if you watch the last 2 seasons with Beverly Hills that's the best entry point if not easiest is just watch the last 5 episodes of this latest season too! That's when all the Kathy Hilton vs. Lisa Rinna drama started... And Superman and Lois! Oh. man... I watched the first 3 episodes and I swear i've cried so much! I can just picture Farrow smuggly watching it with Moffy on his side... and then suddenly they're both moved by it! (Potential bonus scene! wink wink hehe). What other stuff have you been watching Becca? How's X-Men going? :O Where are you guy's at with that? Have you guys gotten to Destiny of X era? Cuz personally by Destiny of X, i have... some now new issues with this current era? Mainly being it being spread so thin between such a large cast that it's hard to get invested? My favs from Emma Frost, Kitty, Rictor and Shatterstar, mystique x destiny, the New mutants and hellions (when it was a thing!) everything else I'm not as invested in? I really want to love the Excalibur run (for Rogue and Gambit) but the Captain britain thing kinda took over? And with X-Men/Wolverine runs, the JG and Cyclops marriage kinda domesticated him and now Cyc is kinda a himbo? I kinda miss during Messiah Complex and the Excinction era where he and Emma were front liners in both combat and administration. It just felt... substantiated. Almost like Connor and Rose...What u guys think? Where's ur head at with our Krakoan X-Men?! What to Lilo and the Hales think! I can def see them having fights over the breakfast table about Krakoan politics! hhehe.

Sioned

EEEEK!! I’m so pumped 💗💗

A spector

Mentally marking this as a maybe, 🤔 also if it is true two of the top ten foes are one and the same…

A spector

The Celebrity Crush writer from most of the articles from the addicted series is Wendy Collins, W name, maiden name for our Rochester matriarch?

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Omg my favs on Potomac change EVERY SINGLE SEASON! I feel like I'm loyal and disloyal to them all lolol 😂 Krista & I both feel the same way about Rings of Power. Similar feelings that you have too! It was hard to connect super deeply with the characters (maybe bc there were a lot of plot holes / strange character choices). I also think that watching it next to House of the Dragon every week really spotlighted a lot of the weaknesses in certain storylines they chose to tell (versus the story in the actual books) bc HOTD was so strong. I'm trying not to be too critical of it since it might smooth some things out in season 2, but we wish they didn't rush the ending so much. It felt like most of the plot was all crammed into the last episode. All the Reddit theories about Sauron were right from episode 2, so I wonder if I didn't read those, if maybe it would've been more shocking and fun in the end. Oooh I might need to start back on RHBH! The first season of Superman & Lois is why I absolutely love TV (and especially The WB -- even if it's on The CW, it has those nostalgic WB feels). I haven't finished the second season though! I just started it not too long ago. I am on a pause in the Dawn of X line (I'm at such a good part too!) Had to stop for writing, but Krista already read Hellfire Gala. I think she's all caught up! I definitely think since it's such a large cast that binge-reading is the only way to be connected. I think it'd be a lot harder if I didn't have so much to read at one time and had to wait for the issues to come out. Cyc is a himbo?! Whaaa??? Omg I'm going to be upset if his character is taking a strange turn. He definitely peaked during the Messiah Complex era (my fav) with Emma Frost at his side. I've adored the whole Krakow X-Men lines. It's so amazing. I can definitely see this being a highlight of the Hales, too, bc it's fun and it feels like there is a lot of new lore and attention to so many characters. BUT WHERE IS HELLION?!? I need him to appear SOMEWHERE! Also I'm excited to keep reading if you said Rictor is a fav. I'm really loving his character in these new lines. Also, pretty sad if Excalibur is just turning out to be a Captain Britain line. My fav parts of that were Rogue & Gambit. As always, love our comic book chats!! Hope you're having a magical Friday, Laura *hugs tight* xoxo B

Illyana

I LOVE our chats too! All sorts! :P Could listen and learn and chat to yyou guys all day!!! Re ROP Yeah you're right I shouldn't jump the gun. I just think hm. It unforunately only reassured me that movie/tv adaptations will never do source material justice :(. One of my most anticipated things was seeing Sauron in his... Draco Malfoy... long limbed... dandy... charlie cobalt-eque since i was a wee kid! And see him play all the elves like a violin for at least a season manipulating them into making the rings of power... but instead it all happened in 20 minutes? I was laugh crying at that point. It wasn't imo as bad as the sequel trilogy for Star Wars but it was right under it for me... I haven't been able to see HOD yet, but i have heard alot of people comparing ROP to it and how underwhelming it is compared to HOD. They DEF do from what i gather that kinda do what i hoped Sauron would do with the elves... I'll watch it once it hits a streaming service here in the UK (I like to watch stuff on the tv and not illegally and unforunately we don't have HBO Max here in the UK!) Re X-Men Therapy ft. Krakoa AHH. Okay. well cause i DON'T have to create original creative work ican consume all the book/comic medium free of noise haha and caught up to.. well i think now? Judgement day the latest cross over event just finished and I think it was... fine? I think... hm i don't want to spoil your enjoyment! But i think without getting too much into the details and is something you may overwhelming feel already in dawn of x is just exactly that... not enough Sceema... not enough Hellion, i want more polaris... Let's have the academy x kids have their own run! Where's multiple man?! SO MANY UNRESOLVED QUESTIONS?! but at the same time, feeling slightly removed cause everyone is sharing the screentime and nobody is kinda getting satisfied cause we can't spend THAT much time getting into things too deep? I think the world building is phenomenal, but aside from some things like the Hellions, 2019 Marauders line and the recent ones Immortal X-men and X-Men Red, it's hard to get invested cuz what they're delivering is not landing with the fandom? For example, the implied the poly relationship or the Summer House + Logan + Emma, and just a lot of the internal politics and friendships/relationships (magneto shaking hands with mr. sinister?!) worked for a time but now almost 4 years into the content there are so many blind spots and we're all like... why is cyclops not at the forefront of everything like he was in messiah!? He kind of doesn't do anything anymore except whatever JG wants which is cute and domestic i guess... but def not why people fell in love with his character. However, my fav Emma Frost (Rose Cobalt wink wink), slays every-time she its panel, or Kitty even or Storm, but so many characters like Jean Grey are overwritten and underdeveloped and i don't really invest in allota of them. The X-Office writers seem very invested in shoving Jott down our throats but all of us prefer Sceema... A lot of rumours have been simmering for years about something potentially going down now with Emma and Captain America (Sharron doesn't hold a CANDLE to Emma ;) ) given that she pops up on the cover in his run starting in Jan 2023... and she just now as well recruited/mentored the first trans mutant in New Mutants issue 31! She's honestly ICONIC. So it's a real mixed bag. I can def picture this be a bonus topic where the entire Hales fam is arguing over ship wars (or there lack of...) differences and the lot. I would be curious to see what everyone's stances are! Tehehe. But most importantly, what you guys think! Because you guys know more than ANYONE about ensamble cast story-telling ;) P.s. how are you guys reading them? in the rainbow coloured trade paperbacks (I collect them this way... i like the rainbow aspect of it or crayon colouring? Cuz u know... Rainbow Brigade and all hehe) or the dawn/reign of x era tpbs, so like the grey ones? Marvel Unlimited?

Illyana

I realise that this should have been more of an email given how side tracked we got! I apologise for airing our X-men rambles! But in my defence... not many can interact so directly with the people that GOT you in to comics.. you know!? :P It's legit the greatest privledge hehe

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I can't believe the UK doesn't have HBO Max! That's nuts to me and so sad, since I think it's one of the better streaming sites for shows & movies. The unresolved questions in the new line might bug me, and now I understand what you mean about there being too many characters. It sucks that it's just scratching the surface with all of them and not getting deep enough, because that's truly the beauty of the Messiah Complex era was the depth of everything. EMMA AND CAP?! WHAAA??? I don't like comic book Captain America. I absolute love MCU movie Cap (aka Chris Evans' take on him), but most comics, Cap is just...not fun, or at least he's usually against the X-Men. And he hates Cyclops, for the most part. Which is kinda why we always wrote Lo not totally loving Captain America (and he ends up calling Sam Stokes that). Whereas Luna, who grew up more with the MCU than just the comics, would love Cap more and call Moffy that. But my brain can't wrap my head around Emma Frost and Captain America together -- that is the strangest combo!! But it's also making me want to get further in my reading so I can see what the heck is going on! It seems wild 🫣😂 I don't mind our comics talk being more public! Maybe there's someone else reading this who also loves the comics too, and they're enjoying the commentary 💗 Also, everything you feel about RoP is what my SO feels, who grew up with the books like you and kept expecting "elf" Sauron. So you're def not alone about that! xoxo B

Kiz

I think I would cry so many happy tears if yous ever came to Australia

Illyana

RE The Uk's Streaming stone age: Just getting to this now too hehe. Yes, extremely weird that HBO Max or even Hulu i believe we don't have here in the UK. Re: Krakoan Era Yeahhhh its a bit interesting. Again! Maybe we can flesh and fawn over the good and bad when you come to London next (*YES WINK WINK THAT'S ME MANIFESTING*) about this era. On the one had it's great because the backdrop and lore building is Krakoa but because everybody is alive, it seems that the screen time isn't as WELL distributed as say how you guys do it, but instead we get a lot of everybody but not enough to get vested in anyone. And I think that's the problem right now. We can't really buy into JG and Cyc's relationship because we don't really understand WHY they should be together beyond the usual, "well just cuz!". And yes as a messiah complex fan (thanks to you!) peak Sceema was there. I think that's why for decades people (and in the movies) people shipped Logan and JG, because they complicated one another making each other a more interesting character in and out of the partnership. Same goes for Cyc and Emma, Cyc softens her hard exterior and Emma lets him builds the exterior of self-belief of being the true leader of the X-Men (as oppose to Claremont's X-Men we soon find out is not about Cyclops but really JG's story as the central protagonist and leader and antagonist and everyone else is secondary- including Cyclops). Krakoa like most relationships doesn't help us invest enough in anything which i think is the problem. And they imply and allude that Scott and Emma are still a thing (given the implied poly) but with 3 years in... its safe to say they should have confirmed it by now and they haven't. Which i think has led the whole fandom to hope the editors can have her move on... if Cyc has as well. It's toxic to constantly corner Emma when it is not her character to be second best to anyone (In a lot of ways just like Rose Calloway! Just the main difference is that Rose loves Black and Emma loves white... hehe). Which is why alot of people during Krakoa have shipped the few interacts that Captain American and Emma Frost have had... because he is her type... and boy scout ;). But caviat to that is that editors really love to market Emma Frost because they know she sells (cuz she's iconic?!) but it always ends up being a disappointment. So we should all have low expectations of Her and Cap being on the cover of an issue solicited in his run come January 2023. But here's to hoping... :D With that all in mind, I am so curious about not just your guy's opinions on all this, but also the Hales! I can imagine from what you said Lo not being too keen about Cap... But at the same time what do they all think of the editorial madness that's happening?! Do they like the installed JG-Cyc relationship? What would Lily have to Say about Emma? Did you guys' like too the X-Factor run as well by Leah Williams before it got cancelled? :O Or is your fav run in the Krakoan Era STILL new mutants ;) ? Re Collecting the Krakoan comics! Also i forgot to ask! How are you guys collecting the Krakoan era? Are you collecting all the runs? are you guys collecting them in the coloured crayon trades or in the grey eras trade? And What do you think the hales would do? Would they read them as they come out in trade, read the comics online weekly or wait till the Hardcover/Omnis come out? Would they all have their own copies or would they share, what i imagine is the X-Men vault, of comics and pass down the latest Omni or trade between family member? WHO HAS FIRST DIBS ON THE FIRST READ?! I bet its Lo... and maybe if Lo is feeling nice he'll read it at the same time as Lily... right? :DD
