100 Amazing Patterns: An Adult Coloring Book with Fun, Easy, and Relaxing Coloring Pages

I opened the package 5 minutes ago and instantly loved this book! Most of us hate doing things in the left page because were right handed, ALL the pictures are on the right side of the spine and EVERY picture has a completely black back blocking any visible bleeding from the back. The patterns are complex enough to be for a more mature audience but simple enough to allow for relaxation and ease without feeling like you’re doing something a child would. Definitely sticking with this brand for now on!

This is great for someone with crappy vision, lol. My eyesight has deteriorated significantly over the last few years, so I need larger patterns to color and this is perfect for me!

Love it !!!!!!!! I can say I’ve probably bought around 20 different adult coloring books. And in some of them there are the patterns that are too intricate and I don’t like them I have looked at every single one of these pages ( because I had to wait for my markers to arrive ) And there is not a pattern I wouldn’t do. In fact I’m starting on page 1 and not skipping around. My only complaint is that it doesn’t give you a copy to download as they have in the past. Some of the other reviews complain about markers bleeding through to the next page, I cut each page out with a razor blade or a pair of scissors. I actually don’t understand how people can color in the book without cutting it out of the book.

Parr quality is awesome. Each paper has a black backside so the color wont transfer to the next image. I cant stop coloring since i got this. Patterns are nice too. I would definitely recommend this product. I tried with both pen and pencil and good results.

Pages are thinner than I would like ,quality of the paper is not that good ,designs are basic and simple but OK for the price .

I absolutely love this coloring book; not only is it 100 pages each one is different! I have thinner more detailed coloring books, which I love. But this one lets me break out my coloring pencils which is always a nice switch up! And each page has a blacked out back for if you use marker, like I do (ultra thin sharpies), to outline before coloring so it doesn’t leak onto the next page. Brilliant idea. I definitely recommend and when I’m all out of pages, I may jus reorder and color it a different way! Very please with my purchase and such a stress relief after running around with two young kids all day! So if you’re on the fence, do it! You won’t be disappointed! Be sure to give a thumbs up if this helped you 💜

Not what I thought it would be when I think of patterns, most of the pages have flowers in them and I'm not a flower person. There are about 15 to 20 pages that I will actually be coloring, so somewhat of a waste of my money.

The best pattern was on the cover!! They are such Boring designs!! Great if you are a child on a rainy day!! I do not like the phony positive build up this mess got! I am going to try to make the designs more complex. Or else give it to a friends children. :::sigh::::more wasted money!!

I'm glad the item description didn't include any promises of high quality paper because it's not. The grain is slightly better than a child's coloring book but is much more similar to dollar store material. The blacked out page backs don't make a lot of sense to me, either. Since the pages are all one-sided, who cares what the back looks like or that bleed-through might occur? I say that because I'm not sure if it's that feature or the aforementioned paper quality that causes the illustrations to appear dingy; they're certainly not the pleasing white I was expecting. Also, the perforations are not sharp and are so close to the binding that it's difficult to remove pages from the book without tearing them. Oh, and one more thing. The image on the front of the book is what really drew me in. There's some intricate shading that I was really hoping to emulate with my newfound art tools: alcohol markers. The ink doesn't blend well between colors and only slightly responds to colorless blending. I'm less than thrilled with the product and will likely pass the book off to a friend's child or donate the darn thing. I'm putting this publisher's name on my 'uh-oh' list and won't be purchasing another of their products again.

My calming strategy is filling in adult coloring books with my gel pens. In a way, it is simply mindless activity which helps deal with stress and boredom.

My calming strategy is filling in adult coloring books with my gel pens. In a way, it is simply mindless activity which helps deal with stress and boredom.

My job requires me to multitask to the point it is hard to focus during long meetings. This helps my hands stay active while still being able to listen to the meeting and be aware and ready when my name gets called ok to give guidance or my opinion. It is also very meditative. The designs aren’t so complicated that you get bored and give up but entertaining enough to maintain attention. I used metallic markers but they didn’t bleed through due to the paper being thick with a black backside so each picture was separated and high quality paper.

I have had many, many mandala/anxiety relief coloring books in my 40 years of life, but this one is by far the best and most thoughtful. Pros: * Each design is on its own piece of paper. There is no front and back design! * The back of each sheet is completely black and that ends up looking really nice on finished pieces. * Each design is different and are nice quality, artistically beautiful and unique. * This is a pretty large book with many pages. * Across the book, there is a variety of intricate detail. * Doesn't really bleed too bad, considering I'm using super bright permanent sharpie-type markers. * Each sheet of paper has a nice thickness. Cons: * The black color on the opposite side of each design does slightly alter marker colors until they are dry. * Book is not perforated, so I used a box cutter to pre-cut each page out and use the binding as a folder. * Does bleed a tiny bit with heavily inked markers, but this can be helped with a single sheet of paper in between. Honestly, the cons are nothing. This book is fantastic and I will likely buy it over and over again each time I get low on pages in the current one. On the other hand, I purchased several other mandala books at the same time by another author that, while the designs were gorgeous, the paper may as well have been toilet paper because the markers feather and bleed like a murder scene. Thank you, author/publisher for making sure to release and create a high quality and anxiety free book for me to use as a relaxation method! I LOVE IT AND I LOVE YOU ALL FOR IT!

This coloring book is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! It seems that artists created this book of 100 wonderfully amazing patterns, with the artist in mind! The outlines of the drawings and patterns are created using thick, dark lines. The patterns are creative and unique. The paper is just thick enough and perfect for smooth colored pencil blending, gradations and filling in, almost like newsprint. Each drawing is its own masterpiece, with solid black printed on the backside of each page (so no bleeding or seeing through to the next drawing or page). The variety of images and designs are great (a medley of symmetrical and geometric shapes, curves and angles, flowers, even birds on some pages). And, it is ONE HUNDRED DIFFERENT DESIGNS!!! Absolutely worth every dollar spent! (And it was the perfect birthday gift for a new (adult) coloring book artist!) Great job, and thanks a million!!

Pretty pictures yes read problem s The of each page is black on the back. This, I assumed, was a special preventing the marker from bleeding through. I tried my first image and every time I used yellow or very light colors it showes dark splotches. If you miss a few spots and go back over it , anything that already had a layer will turn dark. And yes, it's the black showing through. If you go over another color, to make it darker or to perfect it, your marker will bleed through to the next image. Once I fell asleep while coloring. The marker was laying on a page. I slept for hours. I woke up to a splotch where the tip was. It bled through to the next page of course. Then I realized it bled through on to 8 other pictures. A week later I fell asleep again. The marker was new. I woke up to a larger area of ink. 11 pages completely ruined and more not as bad. I thought it was just the kind of markers I was using. Now I have several other books of pretty things to color. These designs are my favorite. So I keep coming back. I tried Five 5 new marker packs of different brands. Same thing with yellows showing through on each type. Different tip types and Expensive markers. Lesson learned Put at least one page of paper under the image you color in this book. . ( Why do I fall asleep coloring? I am doing a lot of coloring for keeping my mind off of pain and medication can make me fall asleep more easily. I fell and broke my foot arm/wrist and my spine. Not a disk, my bone vertebrae. )

Excellent product from Jade Summer. What an artist.

Frankly, I feel a little let down. At first glance, the book looks amazing. Not spiral, which I knew from the pictures. Pages have a black back to prevent bleeding. With a low quality paper, having the black back makes sense. It's exactly as advertised....but slightly misleading I think. This was a case where I judged a book by its cover. I saw a preview of the back of the book on Amazon. The designs on the back made me think they were more "my speed". My disappointment was when I opened the book. The designs are large. Far larger than any other adult coloring book I've had. They remind me of something you would see more in a children's coloring book than an adult one. I don't mind large designs, but I prefer the smaller more intricate ones in spiral bound books. Posted comparison photos. The first 2 are from this book. The 3rd is from another adult coloring book I bought at the same time as this one. I gave this 4 stars because I do not believe the merchandise was misrepresented. Misleading a bit, yes, but not misrepresented. The pictures try to show the larger size of the images with the colored pencil as reference & the description clearly says "full-frame", but I was expecting more intricacy. Because they're so large & less intricate, I suppose this is why they seem more "child-like". It was as advertised & a great product for the price. While it's not really my cup of tea for the large designs, I will enjoy bringing them to life with color nonetheless. It was delivered ahead of schedule & packaged properly. Overall, I'm satisfied.

Maybe I was expecting too much, but I was not really in love with this product as I thought I was going to be. The book came in all crushed kinda (in waves) because of the box pushing on the front page, so I had to put it under books for it to flatten. Patterns are (for lack of a better term) large, and I don't feel like coloring most pages, although there are a lot of them. I felt they were giong to be more complicated. The pages are actually pretty thick so if you paint with markers it doesn't bleed, and good thing is that the back of each page is black, so less chance of bleeding.

The back of each page is coated in black printer's ink, it's not soy ink because I had an allergic reaction immediately. The black is supposed to prevent bleeding through to the next page, we tested it and it does not prevent bleedthrough of light-colored markers such as yellow or pastels. In fact the black bled through to the front of the page with yellow and pale pink and pale blue. Several pages had black smudges on them. These designs are large and not intricate. I got them for doodling intricate designs inside the large areas and coloring. I scanned them on my printer and colored the prints to avoid the allergic response.

This Adult Coloring Book was advertised as being able to use with markers. I suppose you can if you do not mind the colors bleeding onto the lines, the paper is too porous. The colors do bleed through the page which is expected on all markers, but not onto the page you are working on. The Black on the back of the pages is terrible, if you are using light colors they do not show well on page. If I had not torn out some pages I would have returned for my money back. I will never buy from this seller again.

The book is well made and paper thick and the back page is completely black so no bleed through. . And there are no pictures on the left side...I liked that because I am right handed and I don't relax reaching over myself to color. That being said, the whole book is nothing but patterns and shapes. If you like that then this book is perfect for you...but I like to feel like I am creating something w/my coloring. I enjoy birds and water and landscape and skulls and I believed this was a little of everything! It was probably my mistake though...I does say 100 patterns on the front cover. I just misunderstood what that meant. So I was disappointed.

We bought this coloring book as an activity to fill time during the quarantine. The patterns in the book are really pretty and just the right combination of detail without being overly intricate. Repeatable, symmetrical patterns make it easy to plan a color pattern and easily plan the pen/pencil colors for various sections. And, the paper is thick and backing of each page is solid black so colors don't bIeed through from one patterned page through to the next. I have bought many coloring books for myself and my 13 year old daughter and this is definitely one of the better ones.

I think this book is amazing the 100 amazing patterns adult coloring book by jade summer is spectacular. As I was doing my review video for youtube I was amazed at how many different designs there are to choose from through out the book. I love how thick the book is most coloring books dont have as many pages but this was well worth what I paid for the book. Check out my review of the video on my channel Megan's adult coloring place the video will be published next week

Very nice book. There is a black page behind every picture, perhaps for marker bleeding? I like that the pictures are bigger. I love mandalas but sometimes the designs are so small and intricate, most of these are nice and large. Keeps me entertained to relax while listening to meditation music. I do wish it was a spiraled book so you could fold the pages under. Sometimes it’s annoying to try and keep it open with one hand but once it gets used more it will be more flexible.

A very nicely designed coloring book. The only flaw was that it was mis-delivered by the Amazon driver and took a LONG time for me to track it down. The Amazon driver transposed my address # and dropped it at the wrong place. What a way to get to know your neighbors ! All is well.

My wife and I love to color at night while watching TV. This has 100 great pages for coloring and has the plus of having the back of each page printed in BLACK. This helps with page bleed through and makes it easy to see the page. Have seen cheaper books that print pages back to back, which makes it impossible to color the 2nd side because of colors bleeding through from first side. The pages are not to complex in design, so medium to find pen works fine for coloring.

This book offers a lot of fairly large-design pictures to color. (I general use brush pens and thick markers in it.) I don’t think the pictures necessarily come out as pretty as some of the ones from more detailed books, but having less detail makes them easier and more relaxing to work on, so it really depends on your mood. I enjoy having it as an option and have done quite a few of the pictures in it so far. It was also a good price for so much content!

I bought this coloring book for my daughter because she miss placed the one she had that was similar to this. I couldn’t find the exact one but I came across this wide range different patterns. I was very pleased when it arrived and so was my daughter. There was a variety of different patterns that were large enough to where she could color in between the lines without a problem. The paper is very nicely made (thick and durable) so you don’t have to worry when coloring!

I thought I would love this book but I do not love this book. The paper is so thin that the black on the back of the page makes all my light colored gel-pens look gray. If I shade, the paper pills. If the paper was a little better, the black ink on the backside of the page wouldn't be necessary. Also, my copy looks like it was mistreated at some point before I got it. The whole book is badly curled. A bummer.

While the designs are okay, the book itself was terrible. The binding and cutting is offset, so each page is askew. Furthermore, the bottom of at least two thirds of the pages are stuck together. Trying to separate them often results in ripping. I had already begun coloring the first few pages before I realized, so returning it is not an option. Will not buy from this company again.

I purchased this for my MIL who loves to color. She doesn't like the ones with the small details and she is in love with this book. She has to show me every picture she finishes and she can't wait to start the next one. You've made a 94 year young lady very happy.

I purchased this as a Christmas gift... I only hope I can get it flattened out from being shipped in time. Had this been wrapped in some way before being thrown in the box the entire book wouldn't be warped and bent. No one wants to give a gift like that. I've had it under a heavy laptop since Tuesday (its Saturday evening) and it is still curled. So far as the contents of this book, I love the patterns. The variety of designs is nice. Literally the only thing this book needs is a cellophane wrapping to keep it from bending in a shipping box. I think she will love working on them, I just wish I could give her a flat, normal coloring book.

I'm really enjoying this coloring book. This book is not super detailed with small spaces to color (which I wanted). Lovely pictures - symmetric and well balanced. The back of each page is black and blank. Page paper is good quality but I still keep a sheet of normal printer paper behind each page as I color it since I use paintbrush markers and sharpies to color and it does go through a little.

Like everyone else.... wish the pages were perforated. Amazing and inspiring art work, paper is great for pigment! I've used gel pens, oil pencils, pastels and watercolors and they all layered down perfectly. I'm very happy, and busy, coloring in this book. Love the black backing too! Please make these easier to pull out, it's tricky to color inside of such a thick book!

I know Jade Summer books are top notch. I'm some-what new to adult coloring and this is the first one I have purchased (aside from the free pictures offered online). They must have heard my prayers for a book with amazing pictures/patterns but not a ton of teeny tiny details because THIS IS IT!! Exactly my style and I'm thrilled to have come across it while searching. It has easily already become one of my favorites!

Just got this coloring book and the designs are very nice and large.... I'm enjoying this book, and you probably will too. But there are too many mandalas for me (personal).. and I've discovered that need a little more variation in content. Also, the paper is similar to a child's coloring book. No special paper here.

I love the patterns and designs in this book. I'm picky about the designs and patterns I color so when I can I look through books before I purchase. I only saw a few pages of this book and decided to order it hoping I wouldn't be sorry. I'm glad to say I was very pleasantly surprised!! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking to relax or wind down at any point of the day.

I absolutely love this coloring book, i love the desings and pattern they're simple but very beautiful. This books patterns are more on the large side which i love because I personally dont like coloring books that have those little sections to color because it gets too frustrating and i get impatient but with this book its perfect. The only thing that i dont like is that i have to either put some scratch paper underneath or a clipboard underneath the page im coloring because if i dont it marks the next page. I didnt know that happened until i colored the first page and flipped over to the next and seen the whole pattern had transferred to the second page :(

Good value for number of pictures. But flipping through all the pages, these are all way too similar in pattern design which is unfortunate. I would’ve liked to see way more variance in patterns. They look the same with a few exceptions. Sadly I’ll definitely choose another brand next time for more books.

I love coloring mandalas and other repeating patterns for relaxation, and I use markers to color. I've seen other reviews of this coloring book complain that the patterns are too boring and lack fine detail. If you like to color with fine-tipped markers, colored pencils, or gel pens, that might be true. But since I'm using more broad-tipped markers, the patterns are perfect for me. I appreciate that the backside of pages are black, which prevents a lot of bleed-through. I've seen some little spots bleed through, but I've started putting a blank page behind the one I'm working on and that takes care of it. Overall, can't beat 100 pages for this price!

Another Jade Summer book added to my coloring book collection. At this point i refuse to keep count of how many I've collected because honestly i would like every book available by JS added to my collection. The price, the quality, the quantity of pages, you just cant get any better than this. I would recommend without hesitation.

This coloring book is very large and unwieldy. I cannot hold it to color a page so I have to tear the page out. The rather pulpy paper is backed by black paper of some sort. The designs are also very big, with many large blank spaces. I do not want to use my gel pens in these big spaces and the watercolor markers bleed through a bit and cause the paper to dissolve slightly causing paper “crumbs”. I’ll not be coloring very much in this book.

I like the Coloring book that I got but my problem is with it was that if you do use markers the leak so you have to put paper one the back. Side so the markers start leak And in shipping when it came my book was all crumpled up so I wasn’t very happy about that but that was doable but this is a wonderful book to color

A+ worth $10. Designs are not too detailed but not too easy. I can get through one in a movie! Pages are backed with black, so you don’t waste half the pages if your markers bleed. Perfect for prismacolor dual-tipped paintbrush tip markers. Highly recommendation this and jade summer’s stained glass book.

This book has awesome patterns on each page. The pages are only one sided so you don't have to worry about coloring going through on the back of the page. The back of each page is black which helps with colors bleeding through. The book is sturdy and found that is great quality for the price. My 10 year old daughter enjoys the book Would recommend this product.

Paper stock is on the thin side the pages are not perforated so it is hard to remove them to work on individual images paper is thin although it is dark on the backside if you are using colored pens or pencil and don't put a separate piece of paper underneath you will see the impressions on the next page

I bought this for my 94 year old mother for Mother's Day. She loves to mix it up with watercolors or felt pens or with paint pens. She had a fall and can no longer dance. It gives her something enjoyable to do while sheltering in place during COVID-19 quarantine. She has even gotten some of her friends to enjoy their own books. Great fun.

Perfect patterns - interesting but not too tiny or overly complex. One-sided printing. Decent quality paper. Generous amount of pages. Enjoying much thanks. I immediately put a second one on my wish list. Future editions: please add perforation so pages can tear out evenly.

Not full page art, it has a white boarder. Very simple stuff, too simple. No perforated edge so you can't take the picture out. Overall disappointed.

I love this adult coloring book creator, her books are the absolute best. I can’t get myself to even consider someone else’s books after receiving one of hers. The backs of each page are solid black and a good white paper stock. This allows you to use whatever medium you prefer for coloring in the pages. Love, love, love!

I got this for after hard clinical shifts. I was disappointed because the paper is cheap and really thin. Like my pencils went through without much effort. The printing of the images looks like the printer ran out of ink. Only gave it 2 stars because there’s many options to color.

The lines of the book are gray, not black. It kind of looks like when you copy an image from google into Microsoft word and enlarge it and then print it out. If that makes any sense. I colored two pages and I had to trace over all of their lines with a black sharpie so I could get contrast and see where the lines were between my colors, especially the darker ones. I would not buy this again. Maybe it would be okay if you used colored pencils rather than markers.

Really like these. The paper is fine. Not artist quality but neither am I. Big enough I can see. To complete with 65 year old eyes. I would buy again once I finish them all. Very happy with purchase. Some of the reviews made me hesitant but don’t be. It’s great for the price

I love simple, large mandalas that don't have a lot of intricate details, and this coloring book fits the bill!! Another plus is that all of the pages have a black back to keep colors from soaking through if you use markers like I do. I wish this coloring book would have a sequel!!!

Absolutely hands down the BEST coloring book I have ever had! Usually I have to look through several pages to find one I like. Not this one! I have loved every page. The paper is thick and has a nice texture to it which makes it nice to color on. I have come back to buy more, I only have 5 pages left out of 100 and only got it in February ! And I have colored other books in between to not whiz through this book as I didn’t want it to end!

After I opened the package the pages fell out of book when opened. The description says the patterns are super glued onto the book cover and the paper is poor quality. I am very unhappy about this purchase and I am sending it back to amazon and I won’t recommend this to anyone.

I really like the thick paper that take color well. both pencil and markers. The designs are excellent as well, with both organic and geometric elements.

99 of the patterns were amazing. 1 was pretty meh. 99/100 would recommend. This is pretty great as the pages are only one sided so you don't have to worry about bleed through if you are a marker user. Definitely one of the better coloring purchases out there.

The designs were beautiful but the pages are extremely porous. Before I finished coloring one page it had already dried out my new Crayola markers. If you use pencils this is perfect!

Very Satisfied with this book it has some really pretty patterns.

Beautiful patterns but the backside of the pages leaves an imprint on 3 pages following the one you're coloring, simply by pressing enough to get good color. I will be inserting a piece of printer paper in-between them from now on to avoid this problem. The quality of the paper is nice and holds the color well.

Pretty pictures but the paper is that super thin, recycled, cheap coloring book type that soaks up ink like crazy and makes the colors look 3 shades darker than they are. I suppose if you use crayons or colored pencils, you’ll be happy, but if you’re like me and use markers, you won’t care for it.

The cover shot is deceptive. They have shaded the petals, etc with different colors. But the b&w illustrations inside to color have large blank areas to fill in. And hardly anyone will have all the colors available to the artist who did the cover.

This was a big surprise I love this book so many beautiful designs takes markers well pencils, and gel pens work great also. Going to take me a long time to finish this book with 100 pictures. Nice art work for relaxing.

Beautiful Pictures- Poor Transfer, there is a black sheet on the back of each page. If you press too hard it transfers over and bleeds on to the next page. It can be erased but in order to prevent the transfer you will need to put a thick sheet of paper or card board behind it .

I was so excited to receive this book because of the amazing patterns; however, when I opened the book I found it contains very large designs that gel pens are not best suited for because you would use up your pens too quickly. Very disappointing. Wish they would publish the same book with smaller designs.

makes this a hard book to work with using colored pencil. Markers or brush pens are even more difficult as they bleed through the solid back of the page to the next page or 2. Disappointed and would not recommend

I love the books I got. I will buy more. If you have a problem with the black on the back of each page transferring on to the next, put a piece of page in between the pages. I use colored pencils and gel pens.

This book had way more pages than we expected! This will keep my daughter busy for a good long while. We liked the listing with example pages and a pencil for scale. We like the single-side printing and black backs of the pages. Well worth the cost.

My only real complaint is the pages aren't perforated! I don't get how you can color with the pages in the book, but that's me. I paid $0.50 for my local UPS store to cut off the binding. Wonderful designs!

Arrived bent and warped, packaging was fine though so I dont think it happened during shipping. The pages are made of cheap recycled paper that has a newspaper look and feel. Definitely not good quality. Not recommended.

Love the variety of patterns to color. Quality thickness of paper with black on backside of pages to prevent ink bleeding through pages. Would give 5 stars, but upon receiving it, the book was bent on its spine, resulting in some partially torn pages. Aside from that, would definitely order same type of coloring book.

Because it is in the 90°’s where I live ( New Orleans) I took to coloring because of the heat and not much open around here any way due to the Pandemic . Love the patterns in this ! Took a couple of times before I got used to the .thicker .paper with a black backing . I am going to check out more books from this author .

The pages are way too thin. The binding of book is sub par and pages come loose. The black backing bleeds unto the other pages. I had to add loose leaf paper in between the pages so that the black bleeds onto the loose leaf and not the other drawings. The drawings and patterns are cool, but unfortunately because of the bad quality of the book I will not be able to color all the pages before it falls apart completely.

So many more pages than I expected. I Loved the preview of the book too that was a huge help in deciding that I would purchase. I'll have hours and hours of coloring time! The pages are all black back so and single sided. I think it's a nice quality book! I am extremely happy with it.

Such a great variety of patterns and lots of pages to choose from. My only complaint, the pages are not perforated. Personally I like to use sharpies so I always take the pages out of the book so this was particularly annoying to me. But if you don’t mind keeping the pages in the book this is a great option.

Nice thick pages and bold lines love this book very much

I really love the designs in this book! I thought all 200 pages would have designs on them but they don’t, they’re one sided design pages with a black back. I guess that so the colors don’t bleed through the pages.

Love this adult coloring book. It has a large variety of themed pages with black backs, which I like a lot. My daughter is going to really enjoy coloring this after she gets it for Christmas.

The patterns of this book were just fine for myself (not a teen!) and my teenage niece, who I ordered these for for Christmas. But the patterns are very large and not as intricate as we were expecting. The pictures show the patterns at a reduced size but if you take time to look at the pictures shown with a pencil, you get a better idea of the scale of the pattern. Unfortunately, I did not notice that picture when I ordered 2 and have returned them. I'm giving it a 4 because it didn't fit my needs. I also did not have the option of testing the quality of the pages for bleeding of colors. Thank you!

Great book! I love the designs. They are not too intricate to get me bored or frustrated. But they aren't so basic they are for a kid. I also like how the back of the pages are black. Then you don't have an odd bleed through on the back.

I really like this coloring book. Many designs, don't go through the page when I color. Moreover, it looks like it would be good for someone with anxiety. It will calm them down.

Nice big bold designs easy to color- Most of the designs are medium to large with very few fine details but the designs are very interesting you will need blotting paper if you’re using art markers or sharpies

I love how each page has a black back. Beautiful fairly simple pictures. Great for adults. Also for my granddaughters age 6 & 4

Great designs for coloring

i will pass this on to a child. it is far to simple for my interests.

Beautiful coloring book! Clear, crispy designs with black backed pages for bleeding. This is a thick coloring book with lots of pages. Out of the 6 coloring books I ordered from various vendors at once and this is by far the best quality of them all!

Glad I ordered this! I have been coloring in it to help anxiety and I have colored a bunch of pages and will probably need to order another book soon. Great purchase!

I like it. Lots of nice pages to color. I don't like overly complicated pages that take forever to finish. I just want simple, easy and pretty pages to color while I decompress after a long day and watch TV.

I quit drinking alcohol for a new years resolution and wanted new things to do to occupy myself during the evenings. I have found coloring while watching tv to be a good distraction. Some of the adult coloring books are too complicated and too small of sections to keep my mindless interest. This coloring book is perfect for my needs. Simple straightforward patterns that are still attractive and easy to keep my attention.

I was searching for an adult coloring book that contained pleasant patterns, but didn't have hundreds of teeny, tiny spaces to color. This coloring book is exactly what I was looking for. Love it. Very relaxing.

The patterns are great, my only issue is the pages don't tear out. Not a biggy but my Grandkids always find it easier to color.. But lots of great designs.

The pages are just standard coloring book paper so markers will bleed thru and a bit thru the lines of you're not careful. The designs are nice not so detailed they are difficult.

i love this book of coloring. you can get the choice of using different media. i like the fact i can color in front of a black page with pages of all assortments. best coloring book i ever had. takes my mind off troubles and helps me relax.

I have several of the Jade Summer art coloring books and I have nothing but good things to say. The pages seem to come to life. It brings out the creative side in me. It’s soothing after a long day at work. I can work on a page while watching TV and keep up with the program on. I recommend this book and all of the other book’s by Jade Summer!! Excellent vibes and stress free. I’m 47 and my 11 year old son looks forward to seeing my progress.

I love this! As soon as I started in 1 page I couldnt stop! I'm so glad I got this coloring book it is very relaxing and helps me with my anxiety alot

EXCELLENT quality! Each page has the black lining on it's backside to prevent any bleed through. Hadn't realized this and was very happy to see it!

Bought two of these books. The pages aren't perforated so you can't take them out of the book to work on or to frame. Having to work on the page in the book is difficult because the book doesn't open flat. Definitely would not buy again

Love the pictures. All the pages falling out and book falling apart is a pain in the butt! Easier to take out a page and color it. They don't stay in any way. 😩😩

I bought this coloring book and pens for my Mom who passed away just before receiving the shipments. May I return them, unused and beautiful.

Not quality paper, so if you’re using markers it just bleeds through the lines and the pages. The spaces are big so its a lot of work for colored pencils. Cool designs, just not a great book.

Arrived quickly. Pictures are wonderful. But book arrived curled up see pic. I’m hoping a weight will correct this. The curl makes it difficult to to work in.

The book starting falling apart the first time I started using it. The texture of the paper isn't smooth. The price is too high for this book.

Nice book! If you're looking for easy patterns to color and spend time it will work well for you, however I feel that if the book was an spiral format I could color more comfortably. Cool thing is that the back of each page is black, so you can use markers without worrying about leaving marks on the back page

I loved this book! The pages were thick enough so the markers wouldnt bleed through. Each design on its on page. I have ordered more of jade summer books. My new favorite!

Bought this for my Daughter's birthday, she's going to love it. The patterns are beautiful and very delicate. I can't wait to see after she's painted them in.

This is a beautifully designed coloring book. Each page is black behind, so that your colors won't run through to any other pages. There is varying levels of difficulty when it comes to the designs.

For a friend

A lot of pictures to color and some very intricate. Using a variety of colors makes these nice designs look very pretty. Does not bleed through to other side of picture.

I really like the designs and am excited to color them. But buyers beware, the black backing on each page transfers to the page behind it and the one behind that. I only discovered this half way through working on one and ruined the 2 behind it. Have to tear out pages to avoid this.

I have found with a lot of adult coloring books that the pages are way too thin for markers. Then, if you do try to take them out, they do not rip out easily. The paper quality is not good for colored pencils either. I give it a three because some of the designs are pretty but otherwise pretty disappointed.

I bought this coloring book for my mom and she loved it. This is just what I was looking for in coloring books. She has colored a couple of pages and has kept her busy. The book has a large selection of images to choose from and the pages are thick enough that colors do not go through. Great Buy!

A+++!

I love these books because of the black backs I use water color pencils and the black helps hold the water and never goes threw to the next page and yes they crinkle when wet but that really dose not bother me at all

Love this so much great patterns to color and works for both gel pens and markers only reason I didn’t give it a five is because I had to tear out the page !!

Very disappointed with the paper. It is not the crisp, heavy, white paper of other adult coloring books. This isn’t any better than dollar store coloring books. I love the designs though. Contemplating sending it back. :(

I was a bit disappointed in this book. There are to many similar designs. The quality of the paper isn’t the best either.

Beautiful coloring book. Lots of nice patterns. Not too complicated for beginning colorissts, but not so simple as to be uninteresting to color.

I have enjoyed this coloring book. I would have given it 5 stars but some of the designs were more complicated than I like.

this is a great coloring book, not a bad page in the book. I have bought dozens of coloring books and by far Jade Summer books are the best.

I was excited to get this on the mail, however when it arrived it wasn’t what I thought it was going to be. All the pictures are similar and have lots of flowers. I wasn’t impressed

Lot's of pictures to choose from. Nice for all age groups. Good selection. I wish the pages were easier to tare out.

I live thirst! They are total fest readers for me. The patterns are beautiful and they don’t bleed too much! Would def be ordering more!

Perfect for any age

mom really likes this book - loves the patterns and the choices she can make for the different color variations

Markers bleed through to the next page. Plus any light colors in your picture bleed the black backing that is supposed to stop any bleed.

Love the designs, I use markers and the type of paper tends to need more ink than other coloring books I have.

Purchased as an Angel tree gift for underprivileged child. Their only gift request was adult coloring books

Hello, Sorry for the late review; however, due to COVID-19, the package was delayed. I was so disappointed when opening this package to find that the entire book was rolled up at the ends and there is no way, I can salvage this coloring book. During this difficult time, I was looking forward to relieve stress by coloring. Unfortunately, this will not happen. So disappointed and am requesting complete refund.

I love that there is a blank, black page in between every picture so you don't wreck other pictures with color bleeds. I will order more of these books!!

All the designs are worth the wait, great for stress relief in anyone who has anxiety its very peaceful and Therapeutically

Huge variety of patterns and pictures to color. I've used markers and colored pencils in this book with no bleed thru.

I bought it as a christmas gift for my friend. What she likes is it is not back back pages and back of the page is black.

Amazing quality for the price! Such a good selection of patterns and it makes my OCD brain so happy! I love that this coloring book is only single pages AND the back of the page is blacked out. I use sharpie markers to color so it still bleeds through a little bit so just make sure you put an additional piece of paper to prevent bleeding into the next page. LOVE this coloring book. My next project :)

I wish the paper would have been thicker and some of the design are not as clear as other coloring books that I have gotten

Love the designs and details but I am not happy that the coloring book fell apart after only 2 days

I have quite a collection of these types of coloring books & rhus one is very cool. Lota of pages!

The designs in this book are very nice! My favorite of the few coloring books that I purchased!

This book is great. If you love to color patterns you will love this. Definitely give it a try.

Didn't like the quality of the paper. I have another book which has much better quality, the colors show much better, more true to the colors of the pencils. Large designs, easy to use if vision is compromised. I wouldn't buy again.

Adult coloring books are a great way to pass the time especially when you can’t sleep at night

This book is awesome!!! Some designs are more intricate than others...very fun to color!

I became addicted to coloring books during pandemic life, so have seen/tried a LOT of them. This is my very favorite one! (Yes, I'm excited about a coloring book. My life is stressful.) It has heavy paper that doesn't bleed or smear, and the designs are interesting but not overly intricate or complicated (which just stresses me out more than helps).

Very smelly -chemical ink from full back of each page being black. thin paper. not intricate enough for my taste —best for thick crayons or markers. no tear marks

HATRD

Brought this as a gift for my sister to use with her students. A little disappointed with the copies, one on a page not double sided.

Received my book today and I. LOVE. IT! I will for sure buy another one for myself and one for my bestie. I do have 1 request though.. is there a way to add a piece of cardboard in the bag? My book came rolled up. Other than that I'm so happy with this purchase!

Best adult coloring book yet. Great designs. I have several and this is my favorite.

Love it!!! I love all of the pictures it has.. I have enjoyed coloring the pictures.

Beautiful pictures! Like the paper's thickness as it will minimize marking pen bleed-through.

I spend a lot of time coloring during this stressful time. I love the fact that the pictures are larger and no small lines.

Great purchase. As described is how I received, and that was brand new. Nothing to dislike. I’d buy again and recommend to everyone!

This is an entertaining and challenging coloring book. I enjoy coloring in it.

Came nicely packaged. No damage at all. The drawings are pretty and intricate.

So enjoyable to color in just the right amount of detail to fill in not too big or too small. The pages being black on the back help with the marker not transferring to the next page somewhat but I place a piece of paper between the pages to catch my sharpie ink.

I am enjoying the book. Page background is not white but “coloring book” color which isn’t a problem for me. Back of pages are black so if wanted to use a pen could. I used colored pencils.

It came in bent and curled up.. luckily my kids don't seem to mind but if it was going to be a gift I'd be sending it back.

This was defective. The entire book was cut wrong. Not only is it not cut straight vertically, but pages in the back are cut short progressing to pages in the front cut long along the right side. Even the cover has an extra half inch showing the test color swatches on the right side.

Cheap paper. Markers bleed through. Paper in an art book should be thicker. Patterns are nice, but disappointed with the quality.

The paper this is printed on feels very much like the kids coloring book type paper for crayons. The designs are also very large. Good for beginners or kids but not intricate or detailed at all. Hard to use gel pens with. I wouldn't recommend this book if you like a challenge.

I brought it for my mom and she loves it

Very good coloring book enjoy jade summers coloring books very much
