NYTimes Crossword Dictionary a Disappointment,
By Linda F. Kamzelski (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Dictionary (Puzzles & Games Reference Guides) (Mass Market Paperback)
When my A-Z Crossword Dictionary fell apart from overuse, I was anxious to try the NYTimes Dictionary. I wish I had ordered another copy of the A-Z instead. In the A-Z, I was able to find more answers, and the foreign word sections were much better than in the Times. Also, the Times Dictionary lists foreign countries in dark gray boxes which make the text very hard to read. Love the NY Times crosswords, but the Dictionary needs work!

What's a 12-letter word for sorry I bought this?,
By A Customer
This review is from: The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Dictionary (Puzzles & Games Reference Guides) (Mass Market Paperback)
Disappointed. I am a devoted NYT Sunday puzzle doer. I have done about 4 weeks worth of puzzles since I aquired the book. Of the 50 or so words/terms/places, etc. I have looked up, I found probably 5. This is NOT the crossword puzzle dictionary I remember from years ago, which was tailored to actual multi-word clues, and did not just provide "synonyms" for single word entries.

The New York Times Crossword Dictionary,
By A Customer
This review is from: The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Dictionary (Puzzles & Games Reference Guides) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the best dictionaries I have found. It gives the best answers in any category there is. Is there a fourth edition?
