Cottagecore Galore is a detailed coloring book with a cottage/country/homey feel drawn by Katie Vaz. Due out 19th April from Andrews McMeel, it's 128 pages and will be available in paperback format.
This is an appealing collection of black and white line drawings which invite the reader to take time enjoying coloring and making them their own with color choices and details left entirely up to each individual taste. There's a short introduction from the author, but otherwise no text included in the drawings.
The whole vibe is "country", with lots of whimsical details and a fun upbeat aesthetic. There are single page drawings with bees, lots of flowers and herbs, china teacups, butterflies, fruit, and baked goods full of details which invite a closer look.
Five stars. It does precisely what it sets out to do. This would make a good choice for a quiet coloring session with a cup of coffee or tea, some fine line markers, and uninterrupted mindful time. It would also be well suited for gift giving, perhaps bundled with a nice set of fine-line markers.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
