What's the deal with them. I've heard they sell like hot cakes. Does anybody over the age of 18 actually color?

I run a bookshop over here in the UK and, yes, these clouring books are very popular. I cannot see the appeal myself, pretty certain it would drive me to distraction, but several of my regular customers swear by them for destressing and general relaxation.

My sister is into them for those exact reasons.
Another hipster fad. A couple years ago it was ironic kickball tournaments. In a couple more it will be origami or calligraphy or something else. Harmless diversions that people seem to enjoy.

The coloring books are a good way to relax when you get tired from knitting. There's no better way to de-stress from a long knitting session than to color while drinking a delicious glass of kombucha.
I didn't like to color when I was a kid, and so I can't see wanting to do it now. Seems like such a boring activity to me, but to each his own.
I'm interested in creating, producing and marketing stress-inducing adult coloring books. A magnified picture of Trump's grotesque coiffure on one page, a picture of a guy dropping his cell phone, etc.
Do you guys think this type of thing would sell?
Wait, when you say Adult coloring books, do you mean it like Adult movies or like coloring books for adults? I'm confused.

Those kickball games were a lot of fun. Hopefully they make a comeback.
my mom, sister, grandmother, and co-workers are into them... they look challenging

Coloring books for adults, although the former would be interesting

I'm glad kickball got taken from the hipsters by the bros. I just like it when hipsters' things are taken away from them.

I find that Lululemon makes the best gear to wear when coloring. That way I can go straight to yoga to relieve any tightness in my shoulders and arms from coloring.
My girlfriend had a very stressful fall semester so I bought her some of these to relax. She seems to really like them. I will admit that when I tell people I bought an adult coloring book they think of adult as in something sexually explicit.
On another note I have flirted with a few broads on snapchat by saying,"hey I got a new coloring book. Do you want to come over and color?" They are usually really into it. I admit, I stole that line from Jeffrey Gurian.

Is he the guy from David DeAngelo?
OR did Jeffrey steal it from that guy?
That guy had regular coloring books 10+ years ago, and he'd
use that line to get women to come over,
or stay longer... If you know what I mean.
knitting too
As abortion. All the liberals on the planned parenthood thread should get an adult coloring book.
you all sound like a lot of fun
