Guess what? Monday is Prime Day, Amazon’s huge annual sale to rival Black Friday!
Prime Day is the day Amazon Prime members can take advantage of all kinds of great deals across Amazon. And if you’re not a Prime member yet, you can sign up for a free trial of Amazon Prime to test the waters and take advantage of the deals and free 2-day shipping. And if you don’t like it? Just cancel within 30 days. That simple.
Last year I bought an Instant Pot, which was easily one of our single best purchases of all time for saving money. We cook dinner in that thing nearly every evening and have for months, saving us from the expensive humdrum of eating out way too much. I wrote about that in my post about tricks we’ve used to save more money. Last year thousands of people bought Instant Pots during the Prime Day sale, and I’m sure this year they will be doing a similarly good sale.
If you’re feeling like putting your Prime membership to good use, here’s our roundup of the hottest new coloring books coming out in July.
In this monthly series, I will be rounding up the list of the hottest new releases in the coloring book world this month, so you don’t need to dig to find new books you’ll love. Feel free to sound off about other new releases you’ve got your eyes on in the comments!

Pop Manga Mermaids and Other Sea Creatures: A Coloring Book by Camilla d’Errico
Release Date: July 10, 2018
This coloring book was one of the most highly anticipated new releases of July, and one that I highlighted all the way back at the start of the year in my best mermaid coloring books roundup. Camilla d’Errico is beloved for her pop surrealist, manga-inspired style. Combine that with a book full of mermaids and sea creatures like seahorses, narwhals, and more and you’ve got a winning combination!
This book features 70 black and white, original illustrations to color. Images are printed on both sides of thick paper. The book is about 10 inches square.
You’ll love coloring these undersea characters! Click the image above to read more about this book on Amazon, or click the button below to pop it right into your cart just in time for Prime Day.
The Beauty of Horror 3: Haunted Playgrounds Coloring Book by Alan Robert
Release Date: July 24, 2018
Alan Robert’s highly successful Beauty of Horror series is back for its third year with The Beauty of Horror III! This book’s theme is haunted playgrounds, and you’ll love this bone-chilling collection of amusement parks, fairgrounds, and carnival rides infested with scary clowns and plenty of gore.
The book features over 80 illustrations printed on both sides of heavy weight paper. Get ready for the spook of your life!
Grimm Fairy Tales Adult Coloring Book: The Little Mermaid
Release Date: July 3, 2018
I’ve reviewed the Grimm Fairy Tales coloring book line in the past and have only good things to say about these naughty coloring books. This new coloring book follows the story of a mermaid named Erica, and was illustrated by “comic book superstar” Miguel Mendonca.
While not a lot of information specific to this book is available yet, if it is like past Grimm Fairy Tales books there will be just over 40 pages to color, printed on just one side of the page. The paper is on the thin side — along the lines of CreateSpace paper — so if you choose to use markers, protect the pages below with a few sheets of paper.

ASPCA Adult Coloring for Pet Lovers: Amazing Animals!
Release Date: July 3, 2018
Who doesn’t love coloring for a cause? A small percentage of the purchase price of this book will be donated to the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). Get lost in the intricate hoops and swirls of the designs in this book, which include cats, dogs, horses, and more. The description says the book uses heavier paper stock, though I cannot confirm how thick the pages are.
This book makes a great gift for an animal lover, or a fun creative splurge for yourself!
Zendoodle Colorscapes: Gardens in Bloom by Nikolett Corley
Release Date: July 17, 2018
This new book by Zendoodle Colorscapes is part of a beautiful new series of coloring books, presented in an attractive 9″ square format. The book includes over 60 pages to color, each printed on just one side of the page. The paper is thick and perforated for ease of removal.
If you love the floral designs shown above, click this button to add it straight to your cart on Amazon!
Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal Adult Coloring Book
Release Date: July 10, 2018
When I first heard that this film was going to be getting a coloring book, I’ll admit, I thought it was a pretty odd choice. But I’ve come around since spotting some preview images posted on Flickering Myth. For a cult classic with such vibrant settings and characters, and so much beautiful concept art, it makes perfect sense to translate The Dark Crystal to a coloring book format.
This book features over 40 illustrations to color, printed on just one side of the page. The book is 10 inches square.

Release Date: July 18, 2018

Creative Haven Calming Crochet Coloring Book by Jessica Mazurkiewicz
Release Date: July 18, 2018

The Spiroglyphics series is a new coloring puzzle from Thomas Pavitte, creative of the wildly popular Querkles series. Simply color inside the lines and watch as a city scene emerges!
