Review: Long Way Down (Addicted Series #3.2; Calloway Sisters #4) by Krista & Becca Ritchie

 

Synopsis:

With a seven-year age difference, Ryke & Daisy have faced an uphill battle in the eyes of the world and their families. Known as the most adventurous, fast-paced couple — their next step has always been elusive to the rabid media.

Behind the scenes, heartbreaking troubles continue to test Ryke & Daisy’s resilience and shape their future together.

They promise:

To never slow down.
To never compromise who they are.
To never abandon their love for each other.

But preserving their happiness also means adding more risks. Ones that Connor Cobalt wouldn’t even take. As a professional free-solo climber, Ryke is no stranger to risk, but his next step with Daisy wagers more than just his health.

With their lives on the line, Ryke & Daisy head towards the vast, wild unknown in this epic final conclusion to the Addicted series.

***Authors’ Note***
It’s possible to only read the Calloway Sisters spin-off series without reading the Addicted series, but you MUST read Fuel the Fire (Calloway Sisters #3) before reading Long Way Down (Calloway Sisters #4).

It’s highly recommended to read the books in the recommended reading order, which is in tangent with the Addicted series.

Long Way Down by Krista & Becca Ritchie

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

How do you review perfection?

I don’t think it’s possibly, so I’ve been processing this and after two days I can’t keep waiting to write my opinion about this. It was perfect for me and for the ending of an era. I really don’t have intelligent words or a strong critique because there’s none. I’ve been book-hangover and just got out of it this noon.

All I can say is that if you haven’t read this series, then you’re missing something amazingly beautiful. Not because the writing is perfect, or the plot is something never seen before, or whatever you think it makes a good book, because I honestly don’t know if these series has all of that stuff. But I do know that these authors have created such an incredible world for us to enjoy, so full of love, struggles, pain, laughter, magic, reality. etc. And I’m so thankful for it. for this world, for the fandom, for the authors.

This ending was perfect, it made me laugh and cry and swoon and I’m really sad is over but I’m really glad it exists. And fortunately, we still have the epilogue book (Some Kind of Perfect) that now we know will have all of the characters POV’s and the spin-off series (Damage Like Us) who will feature the kids of the main couples of the Addicted series. How cool is that?

I can’t wait!!

1. Addicted Series (Calloway Sisters included) by Krista & Becca Ritchie 

Source: kbritchie.com

This series is amazing, New Adult and it starts getting on the Adult category as the books come out, the characters go growing up in age and in character development and you go right along with them.

The first book is Addicted to You, and here’s a little review I made on Goodreads, I don’t know if I’ll make a bigger review of this, but here’s a little something for you:

I didn’t think much of this book at first, I mean a sex addict and an alcoholic… It didn’t call to me and I was even reluctant to read it, but I took the chance and I’m thankful for it. At first it was ok I guess, I just ‘saw’ the actions of the characters and wonder to myself the why’s and when’s of their addictions, and honestly, there was a point where I said: dude, this seems that doesn’t have any good end… But as I read it I understood that in just one book their issues wouldn’t come to conclusion and at the end of the book I was so riled up and breathing hard, like my heart was literally being squeezed by their feelings and the events in the book. I even cried. So for turning a book where I was expecting just shit into something so much more meaningful for me (because sometime there I really felt a connection) I rated it 5 stars.

The rest of the book, keeps up where we left off the first one, we get to know more characters and see how this story evolves to something more than just the tale of a sex addict and an alcoholic, there’s this bunch of people who becomes family in the books and every one of them deals with their own issues while always being there for each other. And there’s plenty of sexy times too 😉

If you’re interested in this series, you can get them here. Also the rest of the series Calloway Sisters, can be found on that page, as well as the descriptions of each book.

2. Scorched by Jennifer L. Armentrout

This is a beautiful story about dealing with life, with personal and emotional issues and how you overcome them. It’s about growing up by knowing yourself and when you need help, specially help from yourself. It’s New Adult and I recommend it to all girls and boys who have dealt with some mental health issues such as addictions, depression or anxiety, among others, and need to hope that there’s still some kind of happy ending out there, and it begins with ourselves 🙂

Link to the book, here.

3. Moonlight on Nightingale Way by Samantha Young.

It’s the end of an era! The end of the great On Dublin Street Series, adult and with lots of romance, sex, and personal stories that are written so well they keep you on edge and you can feel the chemistry between the characters as it you were one of them. This book was the perfect ending of this series and I rated them 5 stars on Goodreads and Amazon, they were awesome, I just can’t add anything more substantial or objective because I just love them!

Check them out, here.

Bonus!!!

Sweet Addiction by J. Daniels

This one’s about a beautiful and independent woman who falls for the alpha male. Yes, those macho men who you love, or hate to love but can’t avoid it, they’re just too hot and you secretely wish some lover could care about you obsessively much, and you’d totally returned the feeling given the sex is awesome but also because that person completes a part of yourself you didn’t even knew existed or that it was incomplete. Also, there are a lot of treats and frosting involved, wink wink!

Check the book and the rest of the series here.

That’s it for now folks, hope you like my recommendations for you and if you pick any of these books I really wish you enjoy them as much as I did!

P.S. I’m really sorry if there’s some grammatical and orthographic errors, I’m really trying to be the best on my English, but I’m still learning everyday 🙂
