hometown cha cha cha exist to remind us that we’re basic bitches utterly desperate for finding the simplest, deepest, most intimate human connection in a small coastal town and i think that it’s just very sexy and correct of them to assume so..
What a wonderful, wonderful book. If you haven’t read this, I couldn’t recommend it more. I fell in love with the story and the characters instantly. If you’re like me and a fan of Harry Potter who is distancing themselves from it, THIS IS FOR YOU.
“When something is broken, you can put it back together. It may not fit quite the same, or work like it did once before, but that doesn’t mean it’s no longer useful.”
- Linus, The House in the Cerulean Sea byT.J. Klune
Special birthday art of one of our favorite scenes from THITCS for my dear @argylefetish / @penpanoply (without whom I might never have read this book)! She’s not only a handlettering master and my giveaway collaborator, but also just the most genuinely positive and warm person I’ve ever met. Like Linus, she is too precious to put into words, and I’m so grateful she’s a part of my life.
Theodore (the wyvern from T.J. Klune’s The House in the Cerulean Sea) demands coins for his hoard. But in the event coins are not available, he will very happily accept a shiny brass button. 😂 Drawing this adorable iridescent little dude has been the highlight of my week.
Y’all, I’m in love with this novel. If you haven’t read it yet, please move it to the top of your list. It’s compassionate and healing and kind and romantic (and queer), and by God, more art from this book is coming. ❤️
