Unless you have been living under a rock or have managed to miss the craze entirely, adult coloring books are a thing. Like a serious trend right now. Most people might not want to admit it but these coloring books are pretty awesome. Most of their success could be attributed to their calming and stress relieving qualities. I bet most of us haven’t legitimately used crayons, colored pencils or markers since elementary and middle school. These coloring books are everywhere and are selling like crazy. They were being sold back in 2012 but they didn't pick up traction until about a year ago. Any bookstore, Wal-Mart/Target, or grocery store you walk into will have some sort of coloring book.
So if you have not jumped on coloring book train or you are already on it and want something different than flowers and mandalas, here is a list of 11 of the coolest (in my opinion) coloring books on the market!
1. Wizards, Witches and Horcruxes! Oh My!
2. Color Me, Precious!
Middle Earth soars through the pages of The Lord of the Rings Movie Trilogy coloring book. Journey through the beautiful landscapes of Middle Earth while coloring Frodo, Gandalf the Gray and Gollum! Buy it here.

11. Lean, Mean, Zombie Colorin' Machine!
Yes, this uber popular zombie comic book series is already printed in black and white. But you don't have to ruin your beautiful first editions and omnibus just to add gruesome blood splatter to grisly deaths. To be honest, this is mainly a large Walking Dead art book, but if you wanted to color it you can.
Now you have no excuse for not getting into adult coloring books. There are so many different options to choose from and they are all relaxing. Need a break from life? Color a dragon purple or rainbow stripe "Bullsh*t!". The world is your oyster and it can be orange!
