This is my favorite crossword-puzzle magazine because each issue offers 90 Easy, Medium, Hard, and Challenger puzzles. Lots of folks want only Easy puzzles, but what's the point of that? I want puzzles of differing levels of difficulty. I particularly like theme puzzles. For example, puzzles with clues answered by various book titles. This magazine does not offer lots of puzzles with that theme, but the few it does offer are excellent. As to overall level of difficulty, I would say that most of the puzzles fall into the Easy to Medium hard category. I also like the size of the magazine--5 and 3/4 inches wide by 9 inches tall. This is perfect for working puzzles in bed before going to sleep--the primary way I use the magazine. The front and back magazine covers are soft and flexible, which also facilitates solving puzzles while sitting up in bed. Working puzzles before sleeping helps to take my mind off the day's many problems. And, finally, I hope that solving puzzles will keep my mind healthy, active, and strong during my long creep into senility.
