I'M NOT CRYING! YOU'RE CRYING!!!



After several weeks of flipping through the Journal and rereading it, I think I can finally gather my thoughts enough to actually write something for this review.

To begin, I suppose that I should note the Journal is best enjoyed by people who have finished watching Gravity Falls. The first section - the Author's original notes - are enjoyable without any context, as well as Dipper and Mabel's additions that they make throughout the show's run, but after that, things kind of require the context of the show to be fully understood and appreciated.

The Journal is broken down into several sections:
- the Author's original notes
- Dipper and Mabel's (and occasionally Soos') additions to the Journal
- notes regarding events after the second half of season 2
-
- an epilogue, of sorts, to the show's final episode

Hirsch had said on Twitter that originally, he'd wanted to publish the Journal with the invisible ink notes. But for some reason Disney keeps vastly underestimating the popularity of this series, and had told him they'd consider printing a second edition run with the invisible ink only if the Journal sold well.

Last I heard, book stores and Amazon were STILL needing to order more copies to meet with the demand for Journal 3.

Your move, Disney.



And who knows - after all of this, maybe we'll actually get those DVD releases, too.

***
Edit: 3/27/2018





***

IT'S HAPPENING!



They're doing a limited edition print of the Journal, with the invisible ink. And a monocle.

Bonus points if the monocle is a black light.

***
The more images I see from it, the more desperately I want this.

I love Gravity Falls with the fiery burning passion of a million blazing suns holding a barbecue. It's smart, funny, full of heart, colorful, imaginative, and basically as perfectly executed a show as anyone could hope for. Adults and kids love it in equal measure and no wonder.

So when I learned they were making a real-life edition of journal three, just like in the show with information added in as if Dipper himself had written it in corresponding to the various episodes of Gravity Falls, well...needless to say I was ecstatic.



And when I found out ALEX HIRSCH was doing a signing for the book at my local Barnes and Noble, I just about exploded with joy.



The entire discussion and signing was so magical. Alex is just a fantastic human being and artist, and I can't wait to see what he gives the world next. (My hand still tingles from when he shook it after passing me back my ~SIGNED BOOK~)

And Journal 3 really is a masterpiece. One of the greatest things about Gravity Falls isn't that it merely settles for respecting the intelligence of its audience. Oh no. Gravity Falls takes one square look at its fans, and says "I know you guys are smart as hell and you're gonna prove it to me".

There's a ton of that here. Little details, filling in the gaps of stuff we've seen on the show, tons of new information we've never seen before, a ton of imaginative creatures, and Lovecraftian horror in the form of Bill Cipher and the havoc he wreaks over the life of the Author as well as the people of Gravity Falls.

You should definitely not read Journal 3 before finishing the entire show. It's definitely meant for fans first and foremost, something to enhance the whole experience after the fact. After such a wonderful, bittersweet series finale, it was so great to see these guys one last time and have something of Gravity Falls to hold in my hands. 5 stars-and I'd give a million if I could.

Yes, 5 STARS for a “journal” based on an animated series...

Gravity Falls Journal 3 by Alex Hirsch

As the series was winding down, my kids and I often debated, who watched Gravity Falls first, them or my husband and I? By the time of the series finale aired, we all agreed that it did not matter. For us, all that mattered was that we were watching and enjoying the last episode together. We could not ignore the disappointment we felt that there were no new episodes on the horizon.

In Gravity Falls , Alex Hirsch created characters, a town, a world beyond our imaginations--to say the least. Yet, when it was all said and done, there were several elements within his animated series that we could all easily recognize and acknowledge. Hirsch reminded us about the importance of family and friends. He reminded us about how fleeting life can be. He spoke to the need for us to listen to each other more. In two short seasons, Hirsch spoke to us about the power of forgiveness, when it comes to ourselves and others.

Thus, it should not be surprising that Gravity Falls: Journal 3 serves as a GREAT companion piece to the show! Initially, when I opened the journal, I went through it while watching a Gravity Falls marathon. I spent a lot of time oohing and aahing about the fact that what I saw on tv was in direct correlation with what I had in my hands. Once I got over my excitement, which I admit was more than that of my 9 year old, I began to actually read the journal. Admiring the illustrations and skimming through the journal took second and third place, respectfully, to reading and appreciating the life lessons embedded throughout the work.

Consider the following:
Trust shouldn't be given unconditionally, but it should be given a chance to be earned. There is strength in having the humility to work with and sacrifice for others...


On the surface, Gravity Falls: Journal 3 may not be for everyone, but once you take the time to read it you will be pleasantly surprised.

WILL THERE BE A JOURNAL 1 AND 2?
Please tell me there will be, or you'll leave me no choice and I'll make a pact with Bill, leave planet Earth and go in search of a parallel dimension where I can find more Gravity Falls material. Thanks.

I started this book a little over a year ago, and after finally finishing it, I can confidently say it was worth every minute. What an absolute masterpiece. As someone who grew up loving Gravity Falls, this book felt like stepping right back into that mysterious and magical world that meant so much to me as a kid. My boyfriend and I recently rewatched the series together, and reading this afterward made the experience even more special. You can tell that so much thought, care, and love went into creating it. Every page feels like a tribute to the show’s creativity, humor, and heart. If your a fan of the show you will love this.

To be completely honest, I was really hyped to read Journal 3, but I never imagined I would be so moved by it. I love it so much, and it's definetely one of the most wonderful books I've ever read.

It doesn't compare to the world of Harry Potter, or Percy Jackson. It's so small, but I think that being a short story made this cartoon so wonderful. I watched the finale on TV and it was one of the most beautiful and touching endings that I've ever watched. I won't deny that the finale episode didn't answer all my questions, but it was expecting that to happen. Gravity Falls was filled with so many mysteries, characters, and creatures that it was impossible to solve everything in 1 hour. Luckily, everyone who was involved in the making of Gravity Falls found a way of making a final episode that left me with a warm and beautiful feeling, and tears of happiness. Even when it didn't resolve every mystery, it resolved what was truly important. But... as always, Alex Hirsch didn't disappoint his fans and wrote this Journal (with help with other writers) and it answered most of the questions that were left unanswered!! Well done.... well done :P

We get to know the author so much more. We also get to know his story with F.

For people who haven't watched Gravity Falls... maybe reading the first part of this Journal will be more exciting and thrilling because you don't know anything. If you want to give it a glimpse, do it. Just remember... when you turn the page and you see nothing written... stop and watch the show :p After you're finished, you can continue. The last pages will give you so many feels, but only if you watch the show.

I am so happy to have had the opportunity to be part of Gravity Falls. This Journal is filled with so many characters that you'll learn to love. Thank you for reminding me that being weird isn't bad.

Read this again in honor of Halloween... no regrets! This is a quirky and fun read, full to the brim with the weirdness that is a part of Gravity Falls and I think it fits perfectly for spooky season!

It would definitely be more enjoyable for fans of the series (like I am!), because it answers quite a few questions one might ask themselves while watching the episodes, plus a lot of context!

It was a lovely read and I'm happy I picked this book up once again! I also want to watch the series again sometime soon, so who knows, I might end up in Journal 3's pages again, one of these days!
_____________________________________________________________
Being a huge fan of the series, I was so happy to find that Journal 3 had been released as a book. To be honest, I was just expecting it to be a fun read, but I ended up teary eyed by the end. Not only does it allow us to see the development of the story in a different way (and for a while, in a different point of view), it also gives extra information a small details that make the whole story even more amazing! I wish we had more in the Gravity Falls universe, because it is one of the most unique ones I had the pleasure to visit!
Also... the mentions to writings in Journals 1 and 2 really made me want to be able to read them as well!

One of my most anticipated books in 2016 after I watched Gravity Falls and completely fell head over heels with the series.

This is the (in)famous Journal 3 which gets featured heavily in the series. Several pages are known to us (thanks to the series), but a whole lot of the book is brand-new, and full of adventure, full of codes and cryptic messages.

The book is split up in 3 parts. You have the part in which the Author talks and tells us about his experiments, about Gravity Falls, about his assistant, about his findings, and much much more. Then we go back to Dipper and Mabel. When they find the book and Dipper (but also sometimes Mabel) uses it as a journal to record the events that happen in the summer. And the 3rd part is all the author again as he has returned. We see through him how he is preparing the coming of Bill Cipher, he tells us about what happened in the dimensions, and then we get to the final battle with Bill and all that happens there. In both parts he also tells us about his life, about his family.

There are several revelations, and I was delighted to finally find out Dipper’s real name. We had some hints, and we already had suspicions, but finally it was told. I was squealing in delight that finally we knew his real name. Of course, I am not the one to spoil anything, so you will just have to find out yourself what his name is.

The book is filled with cryptic messages, codes, and I had a lot of fun deciphering them. I bought a whole stack (or 2) of post-it notes, in the end I didn’t need that many, but I wanted to be prepared. I still have some codes to go, but I have most of them decoded. Some are just fun codes, but some really creeped me out.

It was so much fun to see the information about the monsters, and also see the notes from Mabel and Dipper to various things when they figured out what would help against x monster.

There is just one thing that I would like to have, Journal 1 and Journal 2. I want to know what is in those, what codes/cryptic messages are hidden in there!

Also, haha, I never noticed how many fingers the hand has on this book. It is a big hint to the author, and I am kind of amazed it never stood out for me.

I would recommend that people first see the series though, as this one pretty much tells everything that happens in the show. But after that? Go ahead and read this lovely book!

6/5 stars

Gravity Falls is a special show. It’s humor (so, SO funny), endless well of mysteries, clever world-building and gobs of heart has solidified it as one of my all-time favorite ‘go-to’ shows that consistently brings me joy.

Show creator Alex Hirsch turned down a truckload of money to extend the series beyond two seasons, but felt that the story was finished, and ended things on his own terms. A rare example of integrity in a business where more, more, more is ever sacrificed to keep the original vision as intended. That alone speaks volumes about how carefully curated these episodes are built.

Every credit sequence has brief flashes of cryptograms that add to the lore of the show. Pause your DVR, copy down each puzzle, figure out the cipher, and interactively immerse yourself into this show like none before it. The more run-through of the series I watch, the more hidden mysteries, humorous explanations, and wild theories I find, just itching to be discovered.

And now that I have children that are old enough to appreciate this show, I get to experience it all through their eyes, and it’s like watching it for the first time all over again.

So, this book. Journal #3. It plays a major role in the overarching story, linking many of its series-long mysteries together before dropping some huge revelations toward the grand finale. So Alex Hirsch brought this book to life, creating a 288-page hardcover tome of journal entries, illustrations, ciphers, hidden messages in the bindings, references to every episode, a massive expansion of its world-building, and so, so much more. You can, and I have, spent dozens of hours unlocking its mysteries while continuously laughing and being amazed. Finding a book that keeps my daughter’s attention rapt as we spend time jumping back and forth between the show and this journal is a huge win for both our lives.

Anyone with a passing interest in Gravity Falls, of which Guillermo del Toro called “one of the greatest shows ever,” should pick this up without thinking twice.

This replica of Journal 3 from Gravity Falls is the prefect memento of all your adventures with the gang in America's weirdest town. It is more than a replica, because it provides closure for any fan of the series, and serves as an epilogue for the series finale. It also comes with a lot of hidden surprises, as expected of any tie-in to that show.

The only thing that would be better than this one is the special edition which was released in 2017.

An incredible book of even more amazing show! 🧢🌲💫Reading this journal helped me understand what the author had been doing all this time for years, his craving for knowledge and gradually yearning for his brother. The codes were all over the pages and it was very fun to cracked them, revealing secrets of the unknown, Rick's (Rick and Morty) messages, and twinpeaksian quotes ! Mabel's notes made me laugh and were so heartwarming !🐷❓

This really reads like a personal journal with ramblings of different people and even a mystery thrown in.

My only con is that I like colors in my kid books and well, since this one is really formatted as an old journal, it was mostly black and brown throughout.

4 stars - this book was enjoyable, and a pretty quick read. I haven't seen the show in a while and this book makes me want to re-watch it ASAP.

This book does add a bunch to the show - especially the part before dipper adds a whole new layer of things that just weren't explored in the show. When we get to the part where dipper starts writing in the journal its pretty interesting to see all the unexplored episode ideas (because that's what it is, it very much feels like this book came to being because Hirsch had some episode ideas he didn't get to explore in video format - which is understandable, he's said from the start the show had a finite number of episodes).

I would honestly recommend this book to any fans of the show - if you have not seen the show, go watch the show and then read this book (no this is not one of those books where you should read the book before the movie 😂😂😂😂😂 )

I love gravity falls, so having this book was pretty much the greatest thing ever. You get to find out what dipper's real name is, what ford did while he was in the portal, and all sorts of other cool stuff that really makes having watched the show that much better. I'm such a nerd for this show, and anyone that loves the show has to, I'm not suggesting they do, I'm saying they have to, because this book is a blessing that all Gravity Falls fans need to have in their life. Anyone who hasn't watched Gravity Falls, then well they need to.

My heart is so full.



This show was a HUGE part of my life. I remember when it was still being advertised before the pilot and I was so excited bc I'm obsessed with the weird and abnormal happenings in the world. This was a beautiful recap of the show plus a few stories here and there that were referenced to but never shown.

Hey Alex?! where are the other 2 journals i need them please and thank you

First watch the series. Then, after a (long) while, read this book. The result is AWESOME.

Gravity Falls is one paranormal series that I loved. Not just because of the weird things and the characters, but also the codes hidden in each episode. And then how, slowly, it turned dark. But always on the same storyline, even if you didn't notice.

I love how this book has some information that doesn't appear on the series, not just monsters but also little adventures. Now it's time to translate all this secret codes and understanding it 100%.

Stay curious, stay weird, stay kind.

Yes another Gravity Falls hit! Love all the references and hidden messages in the book. Also, it filled in some blind spots the series never addressed in a very fitting, exciting and interesting way. This book is a must-have for all the fans of the show

Loved the book. heres proof I'm a mega fan I can type the entire first episode of Gravity Falls.

Ah, summer break - You want cheese on that hon? - Sure, Hank.
A time for leisure, recreation, and takin' 'er easy Unless you're me.
Aaaah!!! It's getting closer! My name is Dipper.
The girl about to puke is my sister Mabel.
You may be wondering what we're doing in a golf cart fleeing from a creature of unimaginable horror.
- Aah! - Aaah! - Look out! - Aahh! Rest assured, there's a perfectly logical explanation.
FOR THE NEXT EPISODES - Support Us and Donate.
Let's rewind.
It all began when our parents decided we could use some fresh air.
They shipped us up north to a sleepy town called Gravity Falls, Oregon, to stay at our great-uncle's place in the woods.
This attic is amazing! Check out all my splinters! Baaa! And there's a goat on my bed.
Hey, friend.
Oh! Yes, you can keep chewing on my sweater.
Ha ha ha ha ha! My sister tended to look on the bright side of things.
Yay! Grass! But I was having a hard time getting used to our new surroundings.
- Boo! - Aaaah! Aha ha ha ha! And then was our great-uncle Stan that guy.
Aha ha ha ha It was worth it.
Our uncle had transformed his house into a tourist trap he called the Mystery Shack.
The real mystery was why anyone came.
Ladies and gentlemen, behold And guess who had to work there.
Oh! No touching the merchandise! It looked like it was gonna be the same boring routine all summer, until one fateful day He's looking at it.
He's looking at it! Uh "Do you like me? "Yes.
Definitely.
Absolutely"? - I rigged it! - Mabel, I know you're going through your whole "boy crazy" phase, - but I think you're kind of overdoing it with the "crazy" part.
- What?! Come on, Dipper! This is our first summer away from home.
It's my big chance to have an epic summer romance.
Yeah, but do you need to flirt with every guy you meet? My name is Mabel, but you can call me the girl of your dreams.
I'm joking! Ha ha ha ha! Oh, my gosh, you like turtles? I like turtles too.
What is happening here? Come one, come all, to the mattress prince's kingdom of savings! - Take me with you.
- Aaah! Mock all you want, brother, but I got a good feeling about this summer.
I wouldn't be surprised if the man of my dreams walked through that door right now.
Oh! Oh! Not good.
Ow.
- Oh, why?! - Ha ha ha! All right, look alive, people.
I need someone to go hammer up these signs in the spooky part of the forest.
- Not it! - Not it! - Uh, also not it.
Nobody asked you, Soos.
I know, and I'm comfortable with that.
Wendy! I need you to put up this sign! I would, but I uhh can't uhh reach it.
I'd fire all of you if I could.
All right, let's make it eeny-meeny-miney - You.
- Oh! What? Grunkle Stan, whenever I'm in those woods I feel like I'm being watched.
- Ahh, this again.
- I'm telling you, Something weird is going on in this town.
Just today my mosquito bites spelled out "beware.
" That says "bewarb.
" Look, kid, the whole "monsters in the forest" thing is just local legend drummed up by guys like me to sell merch to guys like that.
So quit being so paranoid! Ugh.
Grunkle Stan.
Nobody ever believes anything I say.
Huh? Baaa! What the? "It's hard to believe it's been six years since I began studying the strange and wondrous secrets of Gravity Falls, Oregon.
" What is all this? "Unfortunately, my suspicions have been confirmed.
"I'm being watched.
"I must hide this book before he finds it.
Remember, in Gravity Falls, there is no one you can trust.
" No one you can trust - Hello! - Aaah! Whatcha readin'? Some nerd thing? Uh uh it's nothing.
"Uh-uh it's nothing.
" What? Are you actually not gonna show me? Uh Let's go somewhere private.
It's amazing! Grunkle Stan said I was being paranoid, but according to this book, Gravity Falls has this secret dark side.
Whoa! Shut up! After a certain point, the pages just stop, like the guy who was writing it mysteriously disappeared.
Who's that? Well, time to spill the beans.
Broop.
Beans.
This girl's got a date.
Whoo whoo! - Ha ha ha! - Let me get this straight.
In the half hour I was gone you already found a boyfriend? What can I say? I guess I'm just irresistible! Oh! Coming! - What you readin' there, slick? - Oh! I was just catchin' up on, uh - "Gold chains for old men magazine"? - That's a good issue.
Hey, family! Say hello to my new boyfriend! 'Sup? - Hey.
- How's it hangin'.
We met at the cemetery.
He's really deep.
Ooh! Little muscle there.
What what a surprise.
So what's your name? Uh Normal Man! He means "Norman.
" Are you bleeding, Norman? It's jam.
Oh! I love jam! Look at this! So, you wanna go hold hands or whatever? Oh! Oh, my goodness.
Don't wait up! There was something about Norman that wasn't right.
I decided to consult the journal "Known for their pale skin and bad attitudes, "these creatures are often mistaken for Teenagers?! "Beware Gravity Falls's nefarious 'Sup? Zombie!" Did somebody say "cromby"? What is that, "cromby"? It's not even a word.
You're losin' your mind.
I like you.
Oh, no! Mabel! - No! No, Mabel! Watch out! - Uhh! Aaaah! Uhh.
Daisies? You scallywag! Is my sister really dating a zombie, or am I just going nuts? It's a dilemma, to be sure.
I couldn't help but overhear you talking aloud to yourself in this empty room.
Soos, you've seen Mabel's boyfriend.
He's gotta be a zombie, right? Hmm.
How many brains did you see the guy eat? - Zero.
- Look, dude, I believe you.
I'm always noticing weird stuff in this town.
Like the mailman? Pretty sure that dude's a werewolf.
But you gotta have evidence.
Otherwise people are gonna think you're a major league cuckoo clock.
As always, Soos, you're right.
My wisdom is both a blessing and a curse.
Soos! The portable toilets are clogged again! I am needed elsewhere.
My sister could be in trouble.
It was time to get some evidence.
Aaauuggh! Aaah! Aauggh! I'd seen enough.
Mabel, we've gotta talk about Norman.
Isn't he the best? Check out this giant smooch mark he gave me! - Aaah! - Ha ha! Gullible.
It was just an accident with the leaf blower.
Kissing practice! Mmm Mmm Aah! Turn it off! Turn it off! - That was fun.
- No! Mabel, listen.
I'm trying to tell you that Norman is not what he seems! You think he might be a vampire? That would be so awesome! Guess again, sister.
- Sha-bam! - Aaah! Oh, wait.
I'm I'm sorry.
- Sha-bam! - A zombie? That is not funny, Dipper.
I'm not joking! It all adds up: the bleeding, the limp He never blinks! Have you noticed that? Maybe he's blinking when you're blinking.
Mabel, remember what the book said about Gravity Falls? "Trust no one"! What about me, huh? Why can't you trust me? - Beep-bop! - Mabel! He's gonna eat your brain! Dipper, listen to me.
Norman and I are going on a date at five o'clock, and I'm gonna be adorable, and he's gonna be dreamy.
- Wait! But but but - And I'm not gonna let you ruin it with one of your crazy conspiracies! Ohh.
What am I gonna do? Coming! Hey, Norman.
How do I look? Shiny! You always know what to say! Soos is right.
I don't have any real evidence.
I guess I can be kind of paranoid sometimes, and wait! What?! Aaah! I was right! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Grunkle Stan! Grunkle Stan! Grunkle Stan! And here we have "rock that looks like a face" rock the rock that looks like a face.
- Does it look like a rock? - No, it looks like a face.
- Is it a face? - It's a rock that looks like a face! Over here! Grunkle Stan! For the fifth time, it's not an actual face! Grrrr!!! Finally, we're alone.
Yes Alone.
Stan! Stan! Wendy! Wendy! I need to borrow the golf cart so I can save my sister from a zombie! Try not to hit any pedestrians.
Dude, it's me, Soos.
- This is for the zombies.
- Thanks.
And this is in case you see a piñata.
Uh Thanks? Better safe than sorry! Mable, now that we've gotten to know each other, there's There's something I should tell you.
Oh, Norman! You can tell me anything! Please be a vampire, please be a vampire.
All right, just just don't freak out, okay? Just just keep an open mind.
Be cool.
Is this weird? Is this too weird? You need to sit down? R-right.
I'll explain.
So, we're gnomes, first off, get that one out of the way.
- Uh - I'm Jeff, and here we have Carson, Steve, Jason and I'm sorry, I always forget your name.
Shmebulock.
Shmebulock.
Yes! Anyways, long story short, us gnomes have been lookin' for a new queen.
Right, guys? Queen! Queen! Heh! So whaddya say? Will you join us in holy matri-gnome-y? Matri matri mony? Bleahh! Can't talk today.
Look I'm sorry, guys, you're really sweet, but I'm a girl and you're gnomes and it's like, "what?!" Yikes.
We understand.
We'll never forget you, Mabel.
- Because we're gonna kidnap you.
- Huh?! Don't worry, Mabel! I'll save you from that zombie! Help!!!! Hold on! The more you struggle, the more awkward this is gonna be for everybody.
Just ha ha! Okay, just get her arm there, Steve.

This book is close to perfect and a must have for any Gravity Falls fan (though chances are, if you're a GF fan, you've already got it). My only regret is I know I won't be getting my hands on the Black Light Limited Edition copy.

Written as a close replica ripped straight from the show, we finally get to read Ford's words in detail as he describes his time in Gravity Falls, his relationship with his "Muse", and his personal thoughts and feelings through out it all in addition to his notes on the weird.

While I appreciated the sections Dipper and Mabel added (as it tied in with the show where Dipper was in possession of the book), I really read this book for Ford Pines. He's a brilliant, sometimes oblivious man, who means well but doesn't quite get there. His words are often as eloquent as his handwriting, and his witty quips that fill in the notes of the book never failed to make me smile. Every crossed out section referring to his brother made my heart ache, and we finally got to see his relationship with Fiddleford in depth.

If I had any issue, it was probably the last few pages of the book, where Ford goes into this self-pity section of "I was so focused on being a lone hero, that I failed. My brother's the real hero!" and, I don't know. I always felt that Gravity Falls was hard on Ford's character. As someone who spent a lot of time loving that he finally had a friend to work with (be it Fiddleford or his Muse), he didn't strike me as a "I need to do this alone" sort of person. But that's an essay for another day.

My end points are that I will forever adore Ford Pines and his family, and I loved this book. I highly, highly recommend it if you get a chance.

I went to BAM today and they had it. It is wonderful!!!!!! I REPEAT ITS EVERYTHING ALL GRAVITY FALLS FANS WILL LOVE!!!!! WARNING: GRAVITY FALLS FANS ONLY BECAUSE IT DOES CONTAIN ALL THE SPOILERS FOR THE TV SHOW. Seriously, if you want to start the show or haven't finished yet do not read until after you finish the show. Even the jacket art is a spoiler.


But that aside, if you are a fan of Gravity Falls, this is a must have! Now that the series is over, this journal contains all the answers, and even more mysterious, codes, and fun new stories.

Best. Book. Ever! Whether you're a hardcore fan or never heard of the show, this book is a treasure and a keepsake. Wow. Just wow. I laughed, cried, and was inspired beyond belief. Good for all ages and all types of minds, the further you go into gravity falls, the more you see and understand. Just fantastic. A must read. Actually, a must own. I'll be reading this over and over.

Wow!!!!!!!! This book is so amazing! I can make a connection with Mabel in three ways. One, we eat a lot of sugar. Two, we are all about rainbows, unicorns, glitter, and fantasies. Three, are hyper. While reading, I felt happy and I laughed along the way. I recommend this book to people who want to take a break from SERIOUSNESS(!) and read a book about a cartoon!
