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!

What's your go-to reading method: paperback, hardcover, or ebook (Kindle, Kobo, Apple Books, Kindle Unlimited, etc.)? 

Weekly Recap

Happiest Friday to all of you!! We've been hard at work trying to get all the January goodies ready for all of you. It was a very podcast heavy week, and we're honestly so surprised we didn't lose our voices in the process! Now that we've recorded, we're jumping back into writing and should have the bonuses edited and polished soon. Thank you all for your wait for these! We really think they'll be worth it 💗

We're also waiting on some of the last of the proofs for the Illustrated editions of the Like Us Series, but once those arrive and we make the final tweaks, we'll start having more cover reveals for all of you! So keep on the lookout for those beauties soon ✨

On Patreon this week, it was all about the podcasts! In case you missed it, here's what went down:

- Podcast: Monthly Podcast #61: In Depth Look at Charlie Cobalt's Relationships with His Cousins (Maximoff, Sulli, Luna, etc.)

- Podcast: Extra Podcast: How Our Writing Process Has Evolved Over the Years

- Suggestion Box: Suggestions for the February Monthly Podcast

Andrea

E-book reader! It’s just so convenient 😊

a

i am STARVED for those bonus scenes😭 really need my LU fix!

Gabby Rojas

i’m a paperback girlie just because i love looking at my collection and i love to tab but it’s certainly easier to read on kindle

Sioned

I typically read on my phone apple books but I do read paperbacks occasionally:)

a

kindle! idk why but it feels so much faster then reading a paperbackk

Yasti

I read really fast on my Kindle (or Apple Books) so I enjoy reading on there! Plus it’s easy to carry to uni or read at night. Although I do definitely enjoy reading paperbacks, too - especially when I’m reading a fantasy :) My least favorite reading method is hardcover, even though they’re really pretty for display purposes. I’ve dropped them too many times on my face while I’m lying down 😂

Megan

I use Kindle unlimited. I prefer physical books but it's just so much more convenient, and cheaper, to use KU

Stephanie

What should I understand under taking Addicted/Calloway from the catalogue. I thought they would stay and switch to the new covers.

Rachel Parsons

I always read on my kindle. But I prefer paperbacks over hardbacks when it comes to the physical copy.

Arrow

I prefer paperback (and I love the new covers!) but I ran out of bookshelf space years ago, so I read almost exclusively kindle now. Plus then I can read at night without waking the spouse or sleeping kids

Ellieeeee

My go to is definitely Apple Books or my kindle mostly because I read way faster and I feel like it’s easier and quicker for highlighting and making notes. Then if I loved the book I buy a physical copy for my shelves 🫶📚

Angelina (Charlies version) ♟️

AHH IM SO EXCITED FOR SPECIAL EDITIONS and to answer the question I used to read all in paperback but its not sustainable so now I read on my kindle but if I love the books I buy the physical copy for my shelves 🫶🏼

Maud

i LOVE buying physical books and reading outside ☀️ but since my bank account doesn’t really like when i buy every book ever, i try to read most of them on my ipad :) that being said i do own most of your books because i love them too much

Maud

and of course another friday = another random question from me 🫣 i know that some of the famous ones are very active on social media (moffy, jane, luna) and some not at all (beckett, xander). i’m curious to know where charlie falls on this spectrum. he seems like someone who wouldn’t be very active as he values his privacy and doesn’t really care about what others think. but then again, he is unpredictable so he might as well be active 🤷🏼‍♀️

Remy

SO EXCITED FOR THE BONUS SCENES

Remy

apple books!

Meagan

I find that I read more on my kindle. It’s just easier to hold when I’m lounging around. I do collect the physical copies of my favorite books though. If I’m rereading a book I prefer to have the physical copy.

Julie

I love paperbacks, but kindle has been my go-to, and now i buy new if I absoloutley love it and want to reread. I also enjoy searching used book stores, finding favourites and new things to try out, frequently used hardcovers are cheap, a great find.

Lauren Gibbs

I love reading on my Kindle because I like to read in the dark and it's also really easy to hold! ALSO! I am SO EXCITED about the event in KY in 2024!!! 😍💕💯 I haven't been able to make it to any events since I became a fan in 2021 so I'm so happy there'll be one so close to me!!! 🥳✨️

Meredith Capuco

As much as I love owning and reading paperback now I mostly read on my kindle and iPad because I literally have thousands of books in a one pound package

Meredith Capuco

I'm curious are the new editions hardbacks with the AMAZING covers of the Like Us series going to be available in your Signed bookstore?

Morgan

My go-to reading method would be ebooks on my Kindle. I also use Kindle Unlimited. I like being able to whispersync audiobooks to the ebook. I also find it to be a bit more convenient at times, such as making notes, reading at night, cost wise (as ebooks are usually a lot less expensive than a physical copy and you can get the book immediately without waiting or going anywhere), bookmarking my favorite pages, and finding a specific part by using the search bar. I do have a smallish collection of books, which are mostly paperbacks with a few hardbacks. I am a bit limited on space or else my collection would probably be a lot bigger. I am very excited about the 2024 Kentucky book signing event and I'm hoping I'll be able to make it. 🥰

Julia

I usually read ebooks on my phone or kindle. They’re so convenient because I have the kindle app right on my phone so I can read whenever I want and don’t have to bring a paperback with me. I do love collecting paperbacks though and will sometimes read them. For the signed paperback store, are there any special editions of Hothouse Flower left that will be in one of the last restocks? I couldn’t find it on Amazon before all of the old versions were pulled down when the new Berkeley edition went up for preorder. That’s the only special edition I don’t have and am hoping I can compete my set!

Michelle Roberson

Kindle! I used to collect hardcovers and paperbacks, but now I don't have enough storage space for books anymore so it's mostly Kindle at the moment. I saw the Calloway Sisters series in a Target while visiting Australia and I was so tempted to buy those versions too but my bag was already overflowing with tourist stuff lol so I couldn't.

Indy

I read the addicted/Calloway and like us series in paperback! I loved that, but normally I do read it on my phone because I download the books😊😊

Kaitlyn Pasi

reading paperbacks is always better but reading on my phone/kindle is always more convenient😩😩

Lauren G

Audiobooks is my go-to, however because your books release a few months ahead I usually read the ebook 😊

Annette

Audiobook because I can do it while I work.

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I love using Apple Books! That's so funny about hardcovers. I've always thought they're easier to hold open than paperbacks, which is why I tend to read hardcovers more ~ B

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Are you asking about the new paperbacks for the Addicted series? The Berkley Romance new print editions are completely replacing the indie print editions, but the ebooks are staying the same since we still have the rights to those

Krista & Becca Ritchie

It's said that he does use social media, but when he does, it's almost like a "bomb" goes off. He can incite a lot of activity around just random one-liner tweets. He's not as much of an open book as Jane or Moffy on social media, who share a lot of their daily lives (i.e. like on IG stories/lives), but he's also not completely off it like Xander. It's somewhere in the middle 💗

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Yes, they will be! Hopefully sometime soon, and it's likely we'll start with Marrow's books since that inventory has arrived 🥳

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Oh we're so sorry you weren't able to find a special edition of HF! There aren't any Special Editions of the Calloway Sisters left, so they're not on the signed store anymore. There might be someone out there who's willing to part with their copy, though. We haven't seen a lot of people try to trade those ones yet. We hope you're able to find it!

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We hope you do end up coming to the Kentucky event!! We'd love to see you!! 💕💕

duds

this is like mad random lol but can you guys consider writing one of the core six pov in finding out moffy and charlie aren’t going to college together anymore and they just had a fight from the prologue of lovers like us?? love everything u guys write btw 🫂!!

Stephanie

Yes the new paperbacks, but I mean getting them signed from you. I thought that was a possibility in the future ❤️

Maud

thank you for your answer!! <3

Illyana

I tend to do a variety! But in general, i'm not an audio learner, so i don't retain stories as well unless i see the podcaster/person etc on the screen. There are exceptional cases like the Fizz Bubble Podcast but even then im actively taking notes on the nuggets discussed there, so i'm still absorbing it all. but with reading... It depends what I'm doing! If i'm commuting or on the go, I tend to read on the Kindle app on my phone just because it's readily avilable! If its comics, I tend to always read on my ipad unless its a trade paperback. hvae. And if i really really like the book im reading, ill invest in the hardcopy as well. Unfortunately i don't have the space to just 'take chances' on books that i don't really know i'll like yet! It has to be a read that i love and would reread in order for me to purchase it irl. All this said i have multiple copies of the Like Us/Addicted series haha. On my kindle, on bedside... on my shelf... irl and on the app... my ex used to joke years ago and would say, 'i wouldn't be surprised if i would find a copy of the series in our bathroom too' lol! come to think of it... not a bad idea :P What about you guys! What is your Modus Operandi?

Illyana

How has your week been! I went to go see Avatar 2 in cinema again yesterday! because YES IT'S THAT GOOD :OOO. In comic events the sins of sinister event is popping right now and its' so exciting! Flash as well is having their own event and get this... the premesise is simple- aliens came to earth to make room for themselves and extinguish the human race! The Flash family are mucking about and having their own mini dramas being like 'who better at x' etc. you know, fun competition ;) But some tragedies do happen there so not everyone is happy let's say... but anyway, they take the opportunity to use this invasion to do a show down, who is the fastest flash? 60 seconds to save the world. Who would win? Barry? Wally? Ace? Bart? Jay? Avery? It's exciting and it's SOOO GOOD!
