For me, crossword puzzles have always held a special appeal. This collection has been a fantastic companion. Honestly, there's nothing quite like the satisfaction of completing a puzzle on your own. I'll admit, though, that there were moments when I got stuck and had to peek at the solutions at the end of the book. Overall, it was all good fun and thoroughly enjoyable.

The puzzles in the book are so urging to be solved. They're most endless, so that I can keep solving each day when I'm less busy from where I left yesterday. It's quite a stimulating worthwhile thing. I don't know if it call it a book or a game. Also, I wished that the author had put up a guide in the beginning to quickly assimilate new readers into the dynamics and structure of the book.
