Heavy lifting here! [Posted on 2007-01-31]

TGIM - Standing for "Thank God it's Monday" would be an appropriate exclamation every five (5) pages.
I must confess that I have to ask for a little help with a word here or there on Fridays. The rest of the week is manageable.
A whole spectrum of difficulty levels! [Posted on 2007-02-07]
Hooray! A crossword book that has easy AND hard puzzles, each clearly labeled, so you can work your way up as you get smarter (sadly, I'm still a Tuesday girl).
If you're tired of Dell/Penny Press crossword books which are full of repeating, unimaginative clues, the NY Times crosswords will definitely bend your brain in a new way.
AND, if you love crosswords, be sure to check out the film Wordplay, featuring Will Shortz!
For those of us that know our limitations! [Posted on 2007-06-12]
For those that don't know: the answers are int he back, six to a page. Some may have trouble with this and feel the desire to glance at the other answers on the page. If you are doing the puzzles in order, you may glance and remember an answer.
The book is spiral bound, so it lays nice and flat, unlike those that are cheap and glue-bound like a magazine.
Printed on newsprint-like paper, which makes it even lighter and packable. This book is much better than those cheap $1 crossword puzzles you find in the store.
Why is my brain sizzling ? [Posted on 2007-11-29]
Great brain buster, I don't know how can one finish even an easy NY times crossword without an encyclopedia...as in Wikipedia...
A thoroughly enjoyable verbal trip! [Posted on 2008-07-31]
NYTimes -- so you know they're good puzzles. Clever, fair, and with difficulty as advertised. The Monday-Friday assortment let me stretch on some puzzles, coast on others. A good time was had by all (me)!
