The Book of Bill (Gravity Falls)
L**U
Are You Ready to Sign a Blood Pact with Bill?
Just in case you’ve been wondering what happened to Bill after the Gravity Falls finale—this book is for you! Written by none other than Bill Cipher himself, it invites you to uncover the answers to the greatest mysteries of life, the universe, and everything… in exchange for a tiny favor signed with a drop of your blood. Will you take Bill’s deal? Remember: if you continue reading, you’ve already accepted it.★★★★★ ArtThis is my first book in the series, and I was genuinely impressed by the creative approach of the author. The immersive effect of this book is unforgettable. It takes you through Bill’s stories and all the artifacts that have borne witness to his existence throughout human history. Starting with Bill’s early years, moving to his extraterrestrial escapades, eerie urban legends, mysterious cults worshiping the great triangle, and ending with stories of the anti-Cipher society, Bill’s influence on animation and pop culture, and even his first computer capable of mass hypnosis. Each chapter is brilliantly illustrated, showcasing the author’s creativity.★★★★☆ TextArt alone wouldn’t work without the corresponding text, and this book delivers. The quotes on the cover and the first few pages prepare you for the book’s ominous curse, making you question whether you’re truly ready to form a pact with Bill. I actually closed the book at first to reflect, chills running down my spine. However, as you read further, the feeling shifts to humor, riddles, and Gravity Falls lore.The book is packed with stories, fun facts, mysterious puzzles, and even dialogues with Bill, who often invites you for a chat. To top it off, a quarter of the book features missing pages from Journal 3 by Ford Pines, offering insights into his long-standing acquaintance with Bill. While the final journal section is enthralling, the middle part of the book dragged a little for me. The author starts on a peak of creativity, but sustaining it throughout is a challenging task.★★★★★ Book DesignThe book’s design, layout, and format are superb. The carefully chosen fonts complement the art and theme, making the text easy to read. The jacket is pleasant to the touch, though it might wear out over time. The layouts are immersive, giving the impression of stepping into a museum of madness—an experience you’ve agreed to by opening the book. The missing Journal 3 pages are also exceptionally designed, making them feel like authentic pieces of a long-lost mystery.★★★★★ Price and AvailabilityThis book is currently easy to find and worth every penny. As of autumn 2024, I managed to get a very good pre-owned copy for under $19, and by December 2024, prices for some copies had dropped to as low as $12.★★★★★ Overall ImpressionsThe Book of Bill has earned its place as the third Gravity Falls book to become a New York Times bestseller, achieving the title within a month of release—and that speaks volumes! I was unbelievably lucky to snag the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition featuring a yellow Bill (instead of the red one) on the cover for the price of the standard version. This edition includes 16 extra pages of content, making it a must-have for fans.If you’re a Gravity Falls fan, the B&N edition is worth the hunt. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and can confidently say I’ve never encountered another book that made me pause at the very beginning, asking myself: “Am I truly ready to read this and, in doing so, sign a pact with Bill?” Brilliant!

Strange things have happened ever since this book was delivered to my home. The internet suddenly cut off. I have heard scratching sounds just outside our front door. And any time we leave a bag of candy out on the kitchen counter, there are pieces gone in the morning.Okay, so there are explanations.....There was a internet service outage in our area. Our cats were scratching at the door. And our Daughter swipes a few pieces of candy when we leave any out. But with all the repetitive reviews here, I just needed to get your attention real quick. That said.....Order this book today. It's actually on sale for just eleven bucks right now. Which you have, so there's no excuse to not order the book.
