Fan Page: 2 Year Blogiversary

It's hard to believe that it's been 2 years since I started this Fan Page blog in honor of my crazy obsession infatuation addiction to the Addicted Series by Krista & Becca Ritchie.

As you may know, the (almost) last book of the series, Long Way Down , just released a few days ago.  I am so incredibly proud of Krista & Becca Ritchie for reaching this huge milestone and cannot thank them enough for bringing Lily, Lo, Rose, Connor, Daisy, Ryke and Willow and Garrison into our lives and sharing their story with us.  I am completely amazed at how much these books have come to mean to some people and we now have a pretty big group (Fizzle Force) to fangirl with!

Over the past couple of years, I've met some pretty incredible people and have made lifelong friends who share the same love and passion for this series and for many other unforgettable stories and books out there.  It's all thanks to Krista & Becca and their wonderful books!

Krista & Becca have set the standard for down-to-earth, approachable, and laid back authors for me that I always find myself comparing every single author I meet to them.  They are two of the most lovable people I've met and I constantly thank my lucky stars to have met them and to have them in my life!  To (semi) quote Lily -- I'm certain that in every alternate universe, I'm always, always in love with them and their books.

Okay, so enough sappy stuff from me.  Time for the fun part!

We can't have a proper celebration without a giveaway!

Here are the prizes:

★ 1 winner will get a complete signed set of the Addicted/Calloway Sisters Series, including Long Way Down, AND Amour Amour.
★ 1 winner will get a Fizzle Force floating locket
★ 1 winner will get an Addicted-Series-Inspired T-shirt of their choice
★ 1 winner will get a Fizzle Force button, assorted stickers, plus the hardcover set of Kasie West's Pivot Point duology (I know.  This isn't Addicted-series related, but I heard Krista likes Kasie West's books and I just happened to have this set :) )

17 Days Until Long Way Down

It's November!!!  There are so many awesome reads that are releasing this month and we're nearly halfway through with the countdown until Long Way Down will finally be in our e-readers for devouring!

So, today I have a little treat for you all.  Over the past year, I've created some book trailers and other videos for the Addicted Series.  I have a video for Lily + Lo (LiLo) which is a book trailer for Addicted to You, a video for Lo from the time he was nominated for NA Crush Tourney in 2014, a "tv commercial" for Princesses of Philly from Kiss the Sky, a "tv ad" for Rose's Calloway Couture, and a video for Connor Cobalt.  You may have noticed that nowhere in that list is a video of Ryke + Daisy (Raisy) or of Hothouse Flower.  Trust me, it's not that they are my least favorite couple because that is so very far from the truth!  It's that I just couldn't come up with any good ideas or think of where to even start.  And then work kinda got in the way and I just had less and less time blogging or even any free time for myself, really.

Yep.  That's my life.  But I'm not here to talk about work!  Work is boring.

On to more exciting stuff!!!!  With Long Way Down due to be released soon, I decided to start re-reading Hothouse Flower.  After a few pages in, some ideas started forming in my head and all the feels started coming back to me.  Then I just happened to hear a song that truly reminded me of Raisy and it was this song that inspired me to start creating their video using it as the background music.  I was truly elated when I finally finished it and I've been DYING to share it with all of you!!  I very much enjoyed making this video and I hope you all enjoy watching it.  May it bring some of the Raisy memories back from Hothouse Flower and get you all pumped to read Long Way Down!

So, here it is, my book trailer for Hothouse Flower.

Hope you enjoy it!  Fizzle out!!

The Countdown Begins: 30 Days Till Long Way Down

It's so crazy how time flies (or drags, depending on your perception)!!  Today starts the 30 day countdown until Long Way Down is released!  Can I get a HELL YEAH!?

Gosh! Just think, the end is almost near!  November 20th will be here before we know it!!!!

(I'm obviously having mixed feelings about this...I feel like Rapunzel and her mood swings)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYKE MEADOWS!

this super hot super awesome graphic by none other than the wonderful Siiri!

Addicted: One Year Blogiversary

November 23.  It's been one year since I decided to start this Fan Page blog.  Wow.

In the past year, I've learned a lot on how to be a proper blogger and I've managed to make this blog look the way it is now.  Boy, have I collected A LOT of information on the Addicted series.  And I'm not even finished yet!  I will continue to add more pages and more links as necessary whenever I get new information that I believe needs to be shared.  This blog will continue to grow, even after all the books in the series have been published.

It will go beyond and into the "Like Us" series, which (for those of you who have read Addicted After All have recently discovered)  ***SPOILER ALERT***

will cover the next generation in the Addicted world. Yep, I'm talking about the Addicted Characters' children! All grown up!

If you're interested,  you can read the history of how I started this blog here and what makes me so crazy for the Addicted series!

So, as long as Krista & Becca keep giving us more information from the Addicted world, I'll keep spreading the love, and this blog will remain active ☺︎

Okay, so I'm not really one to say much and I'm sure you're all expecting that there's a giveaway at the end of all this.  Well, of course there's a giveaway to celebrate my first blogiversary!  Psh, how could there not be?!  It's also my way of saying thanks to all who follow my crazy fangirling blog ☺︎
