4.0 out of 5 stars Not as Hard as I'd Like, September 18, 2002
This is a great book, but it's not quite hard enough. I live in Los Angeles and the LA Times crossword doesn't hold a candle to the NY Times for difficulty. I bought this book hoping for more of a challenge, but am finishing it way too fast. I'd have loved more puzzles with symbol/picture answers or answers where you have to squeeze an entire word into one box. There are a few of those here, but mostly straightforward puzzles. I think it's probably challenging enough for the average puzzler, but if you're a die-hard puzzle fan, you might be bored.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK for crossword lovers, April 17, 2000
If you love crosswords, get all of the NYTimes Crossword books.

Since Will Shortz has become editor, he has expanded the breadth of the puzzles so that there is a greater range of difficulty level. Monday puzzles are the easiest, and Saturdays are harder than ever.
