I think this one is my favorite of the adult coloring books that I've gotten. It takes one of my favorite books and I can color it! That's pure win for me! I'm totally going to try and stay in the lines and not scribble scrabble as my son calls it.



I know. I like to review the coloring books. I'm a jump on the bandwagon kind of girl lately. I like seeing a couple of pages of the book though before I buy it because these suckers are kinda pricey.

Booksource: I bought this sucker. For my dang self.


There are not many reviews for this one, I guess because it's a coloring book. I did like this review

Teda, dneska bych se sice měla učit chemii, ale měla jsem děsné nutkání dokončit to, prostě proto, že se mi to na stole už válí moc dlouho. :) V brzké době plánuji článek, snad zítra, snad v sobotu, kde vybarvené omalovánky předvedu. :)

My husband got me the Official Outlander coloring book for a present and it’s become a staple I take with me when we are camping or on a long trip. This coloring book tells the highlights of the Outlander story, but not the complete story as it’s not a 1,000 page coloring book! It has wonderful and detailed pictures of the story and is very relaxing to color. It will take you some time to color these pictures because of the magnificent detail.

The pictures are by a variety of artists and include locations, herbs, clothing, jewelry as well as scenes, such as the wedding of Jamie and Claire. The pictures are on very thick paper with a picture on one side and text on the other so you don’t have to worry about bleed through if you use markers. I personally use color pencils. There is a glue binding for the book and the pages are not tear out.

Overall, The Official Outlander Coloring book has wondering pictures of the story and is a most have for any Outlander fan.

Are you a fan of adult coloring books?

I'm not a huge fan of coloring that involves pencils. It is hard to get the pencil to do right for sharp edges cause they break. I love the Outlander books for reading though. This took me over a year to complete the coloring.

The perfect gift for Outlanders readers. Easy to color. I use color pencils! Very relazing.

There are a LOT of details in the book, which can be both a bad and good thing. Good thing is you are be more precise when coloring. The only bad thing is really much of my own opinion on it. I never read the book but I have had heard a lot of good things about it. The details within the pages are very nice and precise and neat.

If I were to color the book, it will take most of my concentration to keep within the lines between the spaces between the detailings are so limited.

Overall, I do like it as it is a coloring book based on an actual book. Honestly, if my friend didn't gift me this book, I wouldn't buy it because it is quite on the pricey side. BUT, I do want to recommend it to all my friends who enjoy coloring and are creative. :)

Just received this for my birthday. Not really sure that this should count towards my reading challenge, but I did read it! Passages from the novel are a nice addition to this coloring book--was not expecting this bonus. Now I need to get started coloring!
