Description



Book Synopsis



Did you miss him? Admit it, you missed him.

The demon that terrorized Gravity Falls is back from the great beyond to finally tell his side of the story in The Book of Bill, written by none other than Bill Cipher himself.

Inside, Bill sheds light on his bizarre origins, his sinister effects on human history, the Pines family's most embarrassing secrets, and the key to overthrowing the world (laid out in a handy step-by-step guide). This chaotic and beautifully illustrated tome contains baffling riddles, uncrackable ciphers, lost Journal 3 pages, ways to cheat death, the meaning of life, and a whole chapter on Silly Straws. But most importantly, The Book of Bill is deeply, deeply cursed.

Alex Hirsch, #1 New York Times bestselling author, resuscitates this infamous villain and invites fans to a Bill's eye view of the Gravity Falls universe. There are many who believe this book is too dangerous for human hands. But if you can't resist, just know this: Once you make a deal with Bill, it's not so easily undone . . .

Beware: This book travels to dimensions meant for older readers.



Review Quotes




"I thought I liked things that were weird, but I was wrong. This book was too weird for me. I feel nauseous just thinking about the horrifying psychosis contained within. I'm legally changing my name to 'Normal Al' now and pushing all my Hawaiian shirts out to sea on a barge. Avoid this book at all costs!!" --"Weird Al" Yankovic

"I found this arcane volume in a musty aisle at the most accursed of libraries. Nightly visitations by foul spirits commenced almost immediately. It has infected my mind and my dreams, and it will destroy your sanity. For all that is good and holy--stay away from it, and whatever you do, do not read it." --Guillermo del Toro

"Look, I hate to disagree with Guillermo and Normal Al, but I love this thing! Ever since I read it, I keep hearing this screaming in my brain that won't stop! I'm buying a copy for everyone I know! We love Bill! We love Bill! We love Bill!" --Charlie Day

Q: Hey, is the book recommended for 22+ because of innapropriate content or because of nostalgia for people in the age group? I'm a younger fan and would like to know since i really want this book ^^

submitted by Charon - 2 years ago

  • A: I personally haven’t read it yet but I’ve seen leaks of it on social media and some things could be disturbing for younger audiences. I wouldn’t recommend any children younger than 14 reading it.

    submitted byKat - 2 years ago

  • A: Most likely due to graphic content. If you've seen Gravity Falls, particularly episodes with Bill, the content will probably either be the same ammount of disturbing and gory imagery or a bit more.

    submitted byKiki - 2 years ago

  • A: It has some scary imagery that might make people have nightmares

    submitted byAdoi - 2 years ago

  • A: i think its for sigma readers like me

    submitted byrizzlord69 - 2 years ago

  • A: It’s meant for older readers because of some violent and sensitive material, though there’s not a lot. You should be alright! It’s comparable to the implied violence in Journal 3, but is a little more direct.

    submitted byMaxypoo - 2 years ago

  • A: Kinda the book is not for younger audiences it does have some scary images but depending how much scarieness you can handle you should be fine

    submitted byHello - 1 year ago

  • A: I think the reason why they’re saying it’s for older readers is because we know Bill is a psychopath so if we think about his mindset, it might get pretty dark or violent or gory and he’s a villain and demon so I mean, I think that’s why I myself is a younger as well turning 17 in a few months, so my mom has no clue what this book is about and I recently ordered it well pre-ordered it so you know I live ones but if you feel you can’t handle certain topics, don’t buy it but if you can buy it just to prepare yourself for anything that might be grotesque or peculiar or just straight up creepy

    submitted byMia - 2 years ago

  • A: I pretty sure it has inappropriate content, but I don't know how bad it might be since it's gravity falls. I'm also a younger fan and will be getting this book.

    submitted byJoseph - 2 years ago

  • A: It has scary pictures in it of bill and it has language in it it’s not for children

Q: Does this book look satanic I'm concerned my mom might think I'm reading something terrible but in reality it's a evil cartoon Dorito.

submitted by Ed - 2 years ago

Perfect for Gravity Falls Fans!

I got this for my 13 year old daughter who is a big fan of Gravity Falls like I am. She took it to school and other kids were begging to read it too, which is awesome. Anyway to make reading fun and connect to it works for me. Highly suggest it for Gravity Falls people!

Dont order online

Such a cute book, but disappointed.. it was sold out near our local Target so I ordered online for my daughter who is such a huge fan, only for the book to come in damaged. Like someone had mentioned, packaging sucks! Wished the “packers” would’ve put more thoughts into it and add bubble wraps or some sort of paper for protection! Disappointed!!!

Hard to get book!

My grandson really wanted this book. We tried ordering from two other popular online/brick and mortar retailers to no avail. One had a five week wait, the other kept taking the order then notified me it was out of stock. Target saved the day and my grandson says the book is exactly what he wanted!

Strange book for sure

My biggest complaint is that the dust jacket is a rough texture, and that the dust jacket had become detached from the book in shipping, which is mildly concerning
