Adult Coloring Book: Be Inspired (Peaceful Adult Coloring Book Series) Paperback – December 8, 2015

Nice coloring book and a great price. Has lots of variety to pick from

Fun book to color.

I ordered these as a 4 pack deal from another site. I'm not impressed with the image quality. Some have lines so thick I'm not inclined to color them, others have thinner lines that are fine and lovely to color. The paper quality in these is not that great. I've used fineliners, crayons, Prismacolor pencils, and fineliners in each of the books. Markers bleed through onto the next page, I expect some bleeding onto the back of the page, but not onto the next page in visible blobs. If you plan on using markers, put another sheet behind the one you're working on. Markers also rip up the paper, it can't handle more than a medium line of color without ending up with paper that is "fuzzy" for lack of a better word. It didn't really take two of the brands of markers well and I finished the pages, but wouldn't recommend using markers at all. The best result I've gotten is with Crayola colored pencils and was unable to shade at all with them. I gave them three stars because the images are kind of generic and I was wanting a bit more variety in the books and the poor paper quality. They do the job, but there are books of better quality out there.

Addressing some issues others have mentioned:1. The binding does make it easy to fold, as you can see in the photos I uploaded. Just a small amount of pressure is all that is needed to keep the book open to the page you want to color. Each page is perforated so you can remove a page and work on it with any medium you wish.2. There are two elephant pages in this book. The title does not have any animals listed in it. So if you want a book with more elephants, owls or anything else, buy a book with those animal names in the title.3. This book contains a variety of images. Some are simple and some are more intricate. The designs that have larger blank areas are there for us to use different shading techniques, add our own details or just color all one color. The illustrator allows us to be creative by giving us variety.4. This book doesn't have as much black as some books do. Try coloring a page with a lot of black and you will see that the image turns out very lovely once completed.5. The paper weight is low, a bit thicker than copy paper but not as thick as card stock. This paper will take pencils, gel pens and markers well. Some mediums will bleed through so be sure to use a blotter paper underneath or tear out the page before you start. Then, you can frame the completed page or place it in a binder.6. Like I mentioned there are a large variety of images. Some more complex than others. Many colorists like variety because some days we just want an easy page to color, taking a break from a more complex page.7. Both dolphins in this book has eyes. So do the octopuses. Check out the dolphin pic I added. The pencil is pointing to the eye.Because of the variety of images, this is one of my favorite books. Some pages I can finish in a few hours. Some take a few days. This is just one of 4 books I own by the same publisher.

Top notch coloring book. I Purchased this as a gift for my daughter's 11th birthday. She collects elephants and the cover was what drew me into this particular book, but the intricate patterns have kept her entertained for hours.

This is a great adult coloring book. Best part being, it define the importance of coloring and its impact on your life which is the most important aspect for adults. Its a 48 page black and white book, which can be used as per your choice. Overall worth a try!

I am disappointed in this book.1. The cover/ binding is not easy to fold, do you have to lay it on the table and hold it down to color. If you try to fold the cover back, the cover gets messed up.2. The cover shows an elephant, but there is only one elephant to color in the whole book-on page 35!3. Some of the designs are intricate, but some are very simple and would have huge blocks of the same color.4. Some of the designs have a lot of black, which should be left white so the user can color them.5. The paper weight is low, maybe 20 lb. paper. My other books are more like 28 lb.6. Some of the designs are very disappointing-they are things that I could draw and color.7. Personal preference, but some animal designs have no eyes. For example, the dolphin and the octopus.

Hours of colouring, great product fast service

I'm honestly so mad that I bought not one but two of these coloring books.. I think I found maybe 2 or 3 pictures out of both books worth coloring... don't waste you're money.
