Having recently rediscovered how much fun (not to mention relaxing) it is to color, I purchased several color books and this was one of them. This book is definitely one of the better quality books that I've received. The paper is good quality, the designs are printed on only one side of the page and the design/pattern lines are thick enough to not get lost in the coloring, but not so thick that they interfere with the design. The pages take colored pencils, markers and gel pens equally well.The designs are intricate enough that they take some thought when deciding how to color them, which is a major plus. And the patterns lend themselves to more than one finished design, if that makes sense. I purchased 2 of this volume and gave one to my sister who also enjoys coloring and when we get together and compare finished pages, they sometimes look like completely different designs depending on how we *saw* the pattern in the design.It's a great book and I am enjoying it so much that I have already purchased some of the other volumes & put others on my wish list for Christmas gifts this year!8/17/2015 - edited to add a few photos of finished pictures to give an idea of the wonderful variety of patterns in the book. There is a nice variety of complex (with tiny details) patterns as well as simpler, more open patterns in this book, While I didn't time myself when coloring any of the patterns (I'm about half-way through this book), I'd estimate that each page I've finished took between 3 & 8 hours total to complete.All of these pictures were colored with a combination of Copic markers, Spectrum Noir markers and Sharpie ultra fine markers.
