me too, luna.

#luna #celestia #mlp #my art #fanart #comic #grand galloping 20s #doodles #oscillating between serious “luna has depression” and funny “luna is a shut in who smells bad and reads books without a light”#luna would LOVE modern pajamas and sweatpants rip #also celestia usually uses first person “I” pronouns but Luna almost exclusively uses we/us #because nightmare moon is technically another identity sharing her body #it's like DID but not because it's not a disorder to them #edit: sorry should clarify that did doesn't need to be considered a disorder either #i don't know the preferred nomenclature for this topic there's someone in the tags who explains

Adult PJO fans: "I can't relate to her if she doesn't look like me" "this is disrespectful to book!Annabeth" "I can't see her as the same character if she's black" "blonde, white women are soooo underrepresented in media. No one else can understand 😫"

Meanwhile, the actual demographic the show and books are for:

Caveats in the tags.

#I'm doubling down since the leahbeth anti's lost their mind with my last post lmao #The existence of book!Annabeth and show!Annabeth are not mutually exclusive #Obviously I'm being hyperbolic but as an adult PJO fan it's crazy that the most hateful rhetoric comes almost exclusively from other adults #The show isnt for us. The books also aren't for us. u can be nostalgic but ur creating problems that arent problems for the target audience #They literally won a kids choice award #The show's not perfect but the kids like it and they love the cast #Weirdos #percy jackson #pjo series #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson fandom #pjo #leah sava jeffries #pjo tv show #annabeth chase #percy jackson and the olympians #mine

our office proof has arrived (singular) so Brendan now the most popular person here as everyone swarms to his desk to coo over it. It's not allowed to leave his sight.

Fun fact! The cover and endpaper art is designed by Daniel Brown, who we worked with on our last set of paperbacks of the series back in 2016.

Daniel's work is tied into his programming background, marrying design with creative generative engines to create this phenomenal abstract but distinctly urban scenes. He's the perfect artist for this book, and I'm so happy we were able to bring him back for this gorgeous edition, and that he's created an entirely new work of art for it.

NEUROMANCER 40th ANNIVERSARY EDITION

don't mind me posting fifteen things in a row because EVERYTHING EXCITING IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK

We have just announced our 40th anniversary special edition of NEUROMANCER, and already nearly half have been sold in pre-orders. Brendan said so, and Brendan would know.

In fact, we actually have TWO special editions.

For £250, you can get one of only 200 signed copies:

Numbered edition of just 200 copies, signed by the author William Gibson

Housed in a bespoke soft-touch solander box with magnetic-shutting doors with original artwork designed by Daniel Brown

Marker ribbon to remove book from box

Book interior printed in two colours

Endpapers designed by Daniel Brown

Featuring 25 illustrations by Marco Luna

Striking chapter head artwork

Marker ribbon

Head and tail bands

Sprayed edge

Holographic foil blocked real cloth cover

Printed on 140gsm Golden Sun acid free paper

Sewn binding

And in recognition of cozzie livs, we also have a limited run of 500 unsigned copies:

Limited to just 500 copies

Book interior printed in two colours

Stunning dust jacket and endpapers designed by Daniel Brown

Featuring 25 illustrations by Marco Luna

Striking chapter head artwork

Marker ribbon

Head and tail bands

Sprayed edge

Holographic foil blocked real cloth cover

Printed on 140gsm Golden Sun acid free paper

Sewn binding

PLEASE NOTE: this edition is not signed by the author and is not numbered

When I say these are STUNNING, I mean that Brendan has pushed the boundaries on what we offer with our exclusive editions, the spec on these is incredible. Between these and our anniversary edition of The Dispossessed, we have reached new heights on the finishes. they are truly really special collectors items.

Unfortunately these editions aren't available in:

American Samoa

Canada

Guam

Northern Mariana Islands

United States Minor Outlying Islands

Micronesia, Federated States of

Marshall Islands

Philippines

Puerto Rico

United States of America

Virgin Islands, U.S.

But for everyone else? Special edition Hunger Games is ON.

I handle a lot of books every day, and I have learned that cozy mystery novels (which the grandmas go NUTS over) always have some sort of cute animal or whimsical handicraft on the cover, but since they're mysteries, there's usually still some form of grisly murder involved, which gets you absolute gems like this:

#ragsycon exclusive #i don't know shit about the quality of the novels. I've never read em #i just love pulling a book off my cart with a baby kitty in a teacup on it & i check the title & it says some shit like DEATHSTABBER SUPREME

@enderfore replied to your post “What do you think of Rook's savanaclaw card? <333”:

Chenya pic where???? I can barely see anything in that room there so much going on, rooks such a lil freak (affectionatr)

he's under the row of flags on Neige's side of the room, next to the big Neige poster with the yellow background (look just to the right of the hand holding the apple)! he's REAL little; once you know he's there you can kind of see him in-game, but I only noticed him in the first place because I took a screenshot and was having fun zooming in on all the details!

I think that's either Hop or Snick and Dominic on either side of Neige, but if the others are meant to be anyone in particular I don't recognize 'em. though I do love all the absolutely terrifying implications of Rook having this. was this some kind of officially-published merchandise (and if so, why) or did Rook like...go hunting through the RSA trash to find this random student lineup just because it included Neige, and has had it hanging proudly on the wall ever since. (I mean, he definitely did do this, I don't know why I'm asking. the real question is why he hasn't cut out little pictures of his own face and stuck them over everyone else's yet.)

there is seriously SO MUCH in this room. how did Rook manage to keep this hidden for three years. also, somebody give this background artist a raise immediately.

#screenshot #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 part 8 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 part 8 spoilers #this just in: the savanaboys are canonically very respectful of each other's privacy and right to their own personal space #the other option is that no one actually wants to see why rook is always so desperate to keep people out of his room #but these are not mutually exclusive! leona respects your boundaries through genuinely not giving a shit. ⭐️#god. rook's room really was somehow exactly what i expected but also so much more than i could have ever imagined.#the literal divide down the center including his BEDSHEETS AND PILLOW #do you think rook makes sure to sleep precisely down to the mm in the center of his bed each night what am i saying of course he does #he has also probably trained his eyes to move independently so he can look at both of the hanging posters above his bed at once #savanarook really was such a treasure. i shall miss him.#(i have also decided based on basically nothing that because there's a banner with vil's unique magic name on it)#(and the corresponding banner for neige says '[someday my] prince will come')#(that i'm going to headcanon this as being neige's unique magic. i must know what it does. the possibilities are TANTALIZING)

based on a convo with my brother

#i use year pretty much exclusively but my brother says the writer #i guess the writer makes sense bc you dont have to memorize all the years #but i think the year gives it more context than the author #though ig there are runs where you have to say author bc the run has been going on for so long #like ill usually say 'starlin's batman' bc its technically like 400 issues into batman (1940)#i also usually say 'marz green lantern' when i talk about kyle's gl run #bc even though its gl 1990 kyle doesnt show up until issue 50 #and it basically becomes a different book when marz takes over #idk im curious what everyone else thinks

At last! 2 days late from the original arrival day but here nonetheless!

The signed Barnes and Noble edition of The Book of Bill!!

And it had Alex's full signature on it, which was a nice plus!

The holy trinity is now complete! And now I have both books

Overall, I liked the B&N exclusive of BoB. It's got some funny extra pages and content in it that is fun to have but also not something I feel if you own the standard red one, you'd feel too bad about missing out on.

It's a solid bit of new content for an already amazing book.

My Gravity Falls shelf has once again gained a new book and grown that bit more. Who knows when the next one will come but when it does, I'll be beyond ready to read it and welcome it to my GF book family!
