hello gravity falls fandom i am going insane and putting everyone into monsterfalls. i cannot be stopped. i’m on mobile so i can only post 10 at a time but here’s the first 10 + explanations :3
mermaid mabel is cool and all but i think she should be Weirder. also the idea of her not being able to frolic makes me sad. so she’s a wolpertinger now
i like cervitaur dipper he can stay. gave him a lil saddlebag for the extra pocket space & turned the spots on his back into more constellations :3
BEAR WITH ME OK dragon stan. PLEASE PLEASE HEAR ME OUT PLEASE i pulled out the monster manual for this and everything & copper dragon suits him PERFECTLY they’re funny and charismatic and like having company around and get annoyed with people who don’t like their jokes and are very protective of their hoards and
i like sphinx ford i think it suits him but i don’t really like how everyone just makes him a lion furry with wings like c’mon get WEIRD !!!! give that cat a jarringly human face
tbh my justification for this one is mostly just that i think it’s funny but. fur bearing trout wendy. they come from lumberjack lore so it’s at least kind of on theme
listen i usually just draw twinks and pretty girls im fighting for my life here dont @ me. anyways fairy soos comes from a post by @/year2000electronics :3
GRENDAAA i wanted her to be both pretty/cute and also strong bc like. yeag. so i settled on peryton with a violet-backed starling as the bird :) c’mon man it’s a deer pegasus with cool colors what’s not to love
when i first started doing these my bestie said candy would be a fresno nightcrawler and i have not looked back. i dont know why but it suits her so much
someone in my tiktok comments said mothman robbie and i was just like. yeah sounds legit. and then my bestie said he’d be a rosy maple moth who dyes himself black/red to be emo or whatever and now we’re here :3
gideon is a kitsune bc they’re tricksters or whatever and also easy to turn into a marketable plushie. he would totally be plushie-able
ok now i am off to make the sequel i’ll put a link here when it’s done :D
edit: IT HAS ARRIVED
#AAAUUUUGH now i have to tag everything#also i posted mabel a while ago but we’re ignoring that !!!#digital art#my artwork#twoadrawstuff#gravity falls#monster falls#mabel pines#gravity falls mabel#dipper pines#gravity falls dipper#stan pines#stanley pines#gravity falls stanley#ford pines#stanford pines#gravity falls stanford#wendy corduroy#gravity falls wendy#soos ramirez#gravity falls soos#grenda grendinator#gravity falls grenda#candy chiu#gravity falls candy#robbie valentino#gravity falls robbie#gideon gleeful#gravity falls gideon

Book recs: sapphic romance for people who like Hannibal and Interwiev with the Vampire, aka fucked up and toxic
Enemies to lovers, lovers to enemies, fucked up power imbalances, manipulations, plain bad people doing bad things - if you like your sapphics a little bit dark check out these books!
Some of these end happily, some tragically, some are more will-they-won’t-they than full on romance, some focus on healing while others focus on Getting Worse, but they’re all very juicy.
For details on the books, continue under the readmore
Feel free to recommend more books in tags and comments!
Othe book rec posts:
Really cool fantasy worldbuilding
Really cool sci-fi worldbuilding
Mermaid books
Vampire books
The Abyss Surrounds Us by Emily Skrutskie
Young Adult. tumblr classic back in the day! A trainer of sea monsters genetically engineered to protect ships from pirates is kidnapped by, you guessed it, pirates, one of whom happens to be very hot.
Escaping Exodus by Nicky Drayden
While my feelings on Escaping Exodus were mixed, it cannot be denied that the dynamic between the two leads and the way they go from childhood best friends to enemies on different sides of a class and power struggle is very delicious. It also features some really cool worldbuilding of living, alien generation spaceships and the human culture that has developed inside them.
The Stars are Legion by Kameron Hurley
This book fucked me up when I read it. It’s weird, it's gross, there’s So Much Viscera, there are literally no men, it has living spaceships and biotech but in the most horrific way imaginable. Had I to categorize it I would call it grimdark military sf. It’s an experience but not necessarily a pleasant one.
The Lumionus Dead by Caitlin Starling
Possibly one of the most unsettling books I've ever read, and definitely the most claustrophobic. Gyre, a caver on an alien planet, ventures into the dark and dangerous underground, guided only by a woman who has no compunctions on using and manipulating Gyre as she sees fit to obtain her secretive goals down in the caves.
The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri
On the less toxic and fucked up side of the spectrum, but still pretty juicy. A princess held captive by her own brother, who wants to see her dead, tries to trick a servant into helping her escape, but with undeniable attraction growing between them and the servant having her own goals things quickly get complicated.
Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
Listen, if you're on tumblr I probably don't need to explain this book to you. Trust me when I say it's exactly as good as people claim. There are indeed lesbian necromancers in space (quite a few of them, actually), but also incredible worldbuilding that keeps growing with every new installment, interesting political commentary, morally complex characters with fucked up dynamics, and well-thought out plot that keeps you guessing until the last.
They Never Learn by Layne Fargo
Listen, sometimes you just want to read about a vicious bisexual lady professor who murders predatory men and falls for the woman trying to solve her crimes and that's okay.
Fingersmith by Sarah Waters
The source of not one but two movie adaptations, Fingersmith is a story of trickery and manipulation as a young conwoman works to gain the trust of a heiress. I don’t want to say much more because the twists are some of the best parts, but trust that it doesn’t take long for things to get real complicated between them.
The Unbroken by C.L. Clark
Tourraine, who was stolen as a child and trained as a soldier for the empire that conquered her home, is recruited by Luka, the future leader of the conquering country to route out a rebellion. A game of twisted loyalties and attraction is soon to develop.
This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
Again, if you're on tumblr (or twitter, apparently) you have in all likelihood already heard of this one, too. Just like GtN it lives up to all expectations. It features two women on different sides of the titular time war, who starts leaving letters for the other to find as they chase each other through time. A quick read, slightly surreal, and absolutely beautiful, I cannot recommend this enough. Pretty mild on the fucked-up-scale.
House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson
In a world where the rich drink blood to preserve their health, Marion applies to a position as bloodmaid in a notorious noble house far from home. Suddenly showered with luxuries and debauchery, Marion soon gains the interest and favor of Lisavet, countess of the house. A fresh take on the idea of vampires.
Sorrowland by Rivers Solomon
A young pregnant woman flees a cult that left her body strange and changing in terrifying ways. Hidden from the world, she does her best to raise her children while trying to find out the truth of the cult and being pursued by a hunter in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. In no way a romance, but certainly has some fucked up sapphic shit going on.
The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson
After her home was conquered by another land, Baru is determined to join their forces and climb the ladder until she’s in a position to free her people. To prove her loyalty, she’s sent to bring order and quell rebellion in another conqured region. Baru is set to succeed, but also has to struggle with her feelings for Tain Hu, a duchess of this region.
Ice Massacre (Mermaids of Eriana Kwai trilogy) by Tiana Warner
Young Adult. A small island is forced to defend itself against intruding forces of vicious mermaids. As all men trying to fight them get lured in by their siren song, a ship filled with warrior girls is sent instead. However one of them, Meela, had a complicated past with one of the mermaids, which is brought back to life when the two reunite on the battlefield. This one is also available as an ongoing webcomic!
Borderline (The Arcadia Project trilogy) by Mishell Baker
Urban fantasy mystery. Very much of the will-they-won’t-they variety, with a bisexual lead who has a male love interest as well as a female without falling into the typical pitfalls of a love triangle. Plays around with various fucked up power dynamics. A year after a failed suicide attempt that cost her both her legs, Millie is recruited by a secretive organisation that works to control traffic to and from Arcadia, the land of faries. Bear in mind that while the sapphic-ness is present throughout, it has a much smaller presence in book 1 than books 2 and 3.
Bonus AKA I haven't read these yet but they seem really cool
The Hunger by Whitley Strieber
Ancient vampire is on the hunt for a new partner, none of which tend to last long.
Codename Villanelle by Luke Jennings
Precursor of the famous Killing Eve tv series. While I don’t know much of the books, I did enough research to know this: their endings differ.
#next list will be either vampires or mermaids#(probably mermaids bc i have a couple of vampire books i hope to finish first)#book recs#nella talks books#wlw books#I've been playing around with the layout of these posts and you know what i like this#might edit the first to rec posts to the same layout to make everything nice and cohesive

Are any of your Arcane Skies characters based off of you? Are any of them aspirational?
Kizzy, the autistic, ADHD, trans man, animal-loving, climbing, reckless, sensory-seeking tween is very, very based off of me as a little kid.
Emmett’s deafness and extreme bookishness and anxiety are also based heavily on me as an adult.
Octavia’s drive is very aspirational. As is Maia’s ability with tailoring and design and Sixsmith’s humour.
Talas, Altan, Nettles, and Scarlett are more character types I enjoy exploring.

I see you often have long lists of stories/books reblogged, do you have a particular favourite you’d recommend?
Also I can’t recall if you have any that are specifically disability linked but if you know if any that’d be cool to know of/have linked if you’d oblige me? I’m ideally in search of a fantasy/fiction book written almost entirely from the perspective of a blind protagonist as I think it must fascinatingly change descriptions throughout it if done well but don’t myself know of any. (And am of course happy to continue a search myself, but you appear to read/learn of a wide variety of stories so thought there was a chance you’d know about something and didn’t think it’d hurt to ask).
my current favorites are the locked tomb series (perhaps better known as gideon the ninth), the death of jane lawrence by caitlin starling, and niche/indie pick miss bennet's dragon by m verant!!
(the latter is the first in a series called jane austen fantasy - if you've ever thought 'jane austen books don't have enough dragons' or 'i think elizabeth bennet could have kicked napoleon's ass' or 'i think mary bennet is an autistic lesbian who should fall in love with georgiana darcy', THESE ARE THE BOOKS FOR YOU. mary is my favorite character hands down i adore her i'd die for her she's so COOL)
also striiiictly speaking i have not actually read this yet but i recently received my copy of the same stars by dori lumpkin (published by @archiveoftheodd whose stuff is so cool that i've even gone to the lengths of telling my not-even-remotely-on-tumblr roommate about them), and i'm SUPER excited to read it, so there's that too!!
i do also often rb those lists so that future me has something to look at - my #other people's writing tag is a reference for me as much as it is one for other people aghslgkjsfd. i have not read everything that i reblog, but i like to reblog when something intrigues me, since if it intrigues me it's reasonably likely to intrigue some of the people who follow me as well. plus word of mouth is basically the only way to get things off the ground on tumblr and i want to support fellow authors and small presses
re a book written from the perspective of a blind protagonist, i don't know of any off the top of my head but @thedisabilitybookarchive might have some!

I saw you're reading legends and lattes which I haven't read yet, but I'd like too! So seeing as you seem like a big reader do you have any recommendations for Halloween reads? Traditional books or if?
I am a pretty big reader. But, even more than that, I'm a library associate so knowing a lot about books and providing recommendations is a core aspect of my job (a job that I adore) 😊
I have been recommending and will continue to recommend Legends and Lattes as a cozy, sweet, delightfully queer read. Definitely give it a go if you've been considering it.
I haven't been able to read much IF recently (so, honestly, I'd be very interested in any recommendations you all might have for good Halloween IF reads) but here are some traditional books (and graphic novels) that I'm happy to pass on. If you have a more specific genre you're interested in, let me know (like I said, this is what I do and I adore it). Many of these don't directly relate to Halloween, but for whatever reason, I think they fit the spooky season. I tried to present a wide range of titles and these are in no order whatsoever. Please enjoy.

ahh i love so many authors how can i pick? octavia butler is a sci-fi genius. shelley parker chan has an incredible historical fantasy book called she who became the sun. gideon the ninth by tamsyn muir and also anything else she has written. the fifth season by nk jemisin! s.a. barnes and caitlin starling are two of my horror favs. - book anon
Oooh I have Octavia Butler on my TBR for sure! I've been trying to read more classic SFF on my bingos and I know her stuff is super good and very influential.
I actually have She Who Became the Sun on my card for this year!! I might read that next in that case 🤔 i need to pick my next book still!
I fucking LOVE the Broken Earth trilogy ahhhh!!! Jemisin is such a good writer, that series changed me forreal lmao. And ofc in unsurprising news, I absolutely LOVED Schaffa, what a terrible guy.
i'm gonna add S.A. Barnes to my TBR because that series sounds fun and I wanna read more SF horror style, but i regret to say i finished Luminous Dead earlier this year and didn't really like it ahah. Tamsyn Muir i never got into, if only cos I think I'll bounce off the style and it's suffered (for me) from a sort of over-hyped situation which puts me off.
you have good taste, book nonny!! have you ever read Joe Abercrombie? :3c
#ask quail#quail reads#i am contractually obliged to rec abercrombie to anyone i ever meet LOL#(not really contractually he's just one of my biggest fave authors sgfgf)#nonnybirds

2025 hopefuls
I was tagged by @libraryleopard to share some books I want to read in 2025! I decided to keep it to 2025 releases specifically because I couldn’t strike a good balance between new books, paperback releases, and my own TBR! and I love sharing my excitement for upcoming books that folks might not have on their radar yet. 📚✨
[books listed in images:
The Maiden and Her Monster by Maddie Martinez, an adult sapphic retelling of the myth of golem (I’ve actually had the pleasure of reading this one and I can’t wait for it to be out in the world.)
A Treachery of Swans by AB Poranek, a sapphic YA Swan Lake retelling!
The Sea Eternal by Emery Robin, the sequel to one of my favorite books and a queer scifi retelling of Antony and Cleopatra (the first one was Julius Caesar!)
The Starving Saints by Caitlin Starling, adult medieval horror with sapphic bacchanalia.
The Sacred Space between by Kalie Reid, an adult gothic romantasy by a dear friend!!
Hazelthorn by CG Drews, I still need to read his other one but I saw AJW and Shirley Jackson as comps so I will be there.
The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri, a sapphic fantasy with knights and witches and reincarnation comped to The Green Knight and The Starless Sea (I nearly pass out from excitement every time I think about this one for real. I’m taking deep breaths rn.)
Fate’s Bane by C.L. Clark, if R&J were cursed sapphic artificers, so yeah i’m there. (also shout out to the Ambessa book, I’m also SO hyped for that.)
The Second Death of Locke by VL Bovalino, an epic fantasy comped to Gideon the Ninth and Six Deaths of the Saint.]
This is the year of devastating knight romances and reincarnation and I genuinely could NOT be happier about it.
tagging: @haliespages @caitsbooks @etherealacademia @yaboywillyshakes @hayniacstuck / anyone else who wants to make one! just tag me cuz i’d love to see your anticipated reads :)
#bookblr#anticipated releases#upcoming books#2025 books#also if any of these publishers want to send me early copies…#please
