Consider this next book for the top of your 2026 gift idea list. In a similar way that amigurumi, kawaii, and hygge have all taken the world by storm, so goes Los Angeles artist Truck Torrence aka 100% Soft’s Dumpster Fire. Actually another spin on kawaii, Dumpster Fire is the artist’s own fantasy world, making something vile into something cute. Think of his characters as a different take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, prime fodder for an endless array of pins, figures, and other collectibles. In The Official Dumpster Fire Coloring Book, now available here at Amazon from Ten Speed Press, fans of adult and not-adult coloring books will meet and add their own color to characters like Trash Panda, Trash Kitties, and Pizza Rat. If you think the world is going to hell in a hand basket or your own life is starting to mirror a dumpster fire, or your friend just needs a pick-me-up, then this book is for you.

Is this you? Are you looking for a celebration of 2026 mantras like BARELY EXISTING, IMPENDING DOOM IS MY CO-PILOT, TODAY’S FORECAST: BAD, and GET IN LOSER, WE’RE MAKING EVERYTHING WORSE? Then take a look inside The Official Dumpster Fire Coloring Book:
