Amazing!!!!,
By daniella isaacs (NYC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The New York Times Weekend Challenge: Formidable but Fun Crosswords (Paperback)
These puzzles are absolutely hilarious! Yet again, I'm blown away by the exquisite surprises, twists and turns. I've been stumped on a few of them for a few days now, but I'm not giving up! Shortz is, hands down, a genius. Try your hand at the masterful art within these pages, and enjoy the furrowed brow and laughs!

This review is from: The New York Times Weekend Challenge: Formidable but Fun Crosswords (Paperback)
Oh where oh where are the crosswords that really make you THINK? I've been breezing through these and enjoying them, but I prefer a bit of a struggle.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Value,

This review is from: The New York Times Weekend Challenge: Formidable but Fun Crosswords (Paperback)
Great value is right. Cheaper than paying the Times; cheaper than printing free Times puzzles from the Seattle Times website. Use a razor knife to cut the pages out and do them on a clip board.
