4.0 out of 5 stars
A coloring book and more!, Sep 16 2011
By William A. Baity "Still Bill" - Published on Amazon.com
I like these light adventures - no message, no gore. Robert Tacoma knows his South Florida fiction, so you will find references to Hiassen's ex Gov. Skink or maybe a description of Doc Ford's hangout. These novels are not as dark as Randy Wayne White's work, nor as wild and crazy as that of Tim Dorsey, but they are in that league. Personally, I prefer the Key ones to those set in South Texas. Here is my attempt to list them chronologically, which is probably the best order to read the Key ones.
Robert Tacoma (various protagonists)
Key Weird. 2005. 4.0
Key Weirder 2005 4.3
Color Me Weird 2007 4.3 no, it really is a coloring book, with a story
Key Witch 2008 4.3
Key Lucky 2008 4.0
Possum Surprise 2009 3.3 S Texas small town, duller. Early MS dusted off?
Key Manatee 2010 4.0
Sheriff Skunk 2010 5.0 S Texas small town
Key Dali 2011 4.0 1st person Dali, Key West street artist, w usual cast

Okay i bought this book really without knowing that it was an actual coloring book. i bought it only becaouse Tacoma is a really fun read. I didn't read the description (my mistake) and even though i didn't color it, it was still a really good time.

crayons and wine, Oct 7 2007

loved loved loved "color me weird"!
2 problems though.
one, it's too short, obviously.
two, now this is alittle embarrassing, i was preparing to color me some weird, got me some alchoholic grape juice, plopped myself in front of the tv with the cartoon network on (gotta have the correct ambience ya know) and whipped out some crayons to go to work! as soon as i touched the red crayon something long dormant in the back of my brain snapped and i completely reverted back to my kindergarten self! i started coloring in everything in the general vicinity EXCEPT the book. when i got bored with that i ate as many crayons as i could before getting a tummy ache. my cat, well, lets just say he's not too happy with me at the moment.... by the end of what we are now calling the "crayon debacle" i had shoved a midnight blue so far up my nose we had to have it surgically removed.
can't wait for the next one!!!!!
