FUNNYBONES by Allan Ahlberg & Tim Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas Colouring book

 

Funnybones by Allan Ahlberg
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a kid's book my husband showed me because he thought I might like it. Of course I was interested. Not only does it feature skeletons, which I love, but the cover glows in the dark!

And I really enjoyed it.

The skeleton family consists of an adult, a kid, and a dog. They live in a basement and decide to go for a walk one night. It's really all harmless fun that does have a bit of a creepy edge. I mean, they're skeletons. 😅

It's a lot of fun and it's going on my keeper shelf.

Tim Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas: Adult Colouring Book by unknown author
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yeah, you better believe I'm going to review this lovely colouring book. 😁

The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favourite movies. It's also one of my favourite things to collect. I love anything featuring Jack and Sally. And that explains why my husband picked this up for me!

Seriously, though. The illustrations are very pretty. So pretty I don't think I'll be able to do any actual colouring in. 😅

THE THRONE OF GLASS COLOURING BOOK by Sarah J. Maas, Yvonne Gilbert, John Howe & Craig Phillips

For the first time, fans of Sarah J. Maas's sweeping New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass saga can experience the vivid imagery of her expansive world. Celaena battling the ridderak in the catacombs, Chaol in the gardens of the glass castle, Manon riding her wyvern through the Crossing, and many other favourite moments, characters and objects come to life as readers explore the vibrantly detailed realm of Throne of Glass. Stunning original black and white drawings will bring fans deeper into the series than ever before – making this a must-have companion to Sarah J. Maas's beloved books.

I was lucky enough to receive a copy of this beautiful colouring book from Bloomsbury Australia--thank you so much--with a copy of Empire of Storms. 

While I can't bring myself to start the fifth Throne of Glass book just yet, because I need to be mentally prepared for what I'm expecting to be an emotional onslaught, I did read this.

Well, you know, reading might be stretching it a bit. LOL. But every colouring page does have a really cool quote to accompany the impressive illustrations, which brought back memories from each book. I also got a kick out of seeing the way the different artists portrayed each character. It really is very cool.

The Throne of Glass Colouring Book is a beautiful addition for the collection of all devoted Throne of Glass fans. It really is stunning, which is probably why I just can't bring myself to colour anything in. I'm going to add it to my Keeper Shelf.

It's SO pretty! I love it.

SUPERNATURAL: The Official Coloring Book by Insight Editions

Supernatural: The Official Coloring Book by Insight Editions

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The other day, I received my beloved Horror Block--which is always full of awesome, creepy horror collectibles--and this was one of the items.

I might have fallen behind on Supernatural, but I love my Winchester Boys and will eventually catch up. LOL.

Anyway, about the colouring book... What can I say? There wasn't much actual reading required, but I did enjoy flicking through the pages. The art is nice. The subject matter is cool. And I really like it! BUT, I doubt I'll be adding colour to any of the pages. It's probably going to go on my urban fantasy Keeper Shelf, because I think it'll fit right in.

This is definitely a collector's edition. And if you're a fan of Supernatural, you should probably grab one.
