Simon & Schuster Mega Crossword Puzzle Book #9 (9) (S&S Mega Crossword Puzzles) Paperback – October 12, 2010

I enjoy these puzzles immensely- not too easy or excessively hard. They keep my mind thinking!

Crossword puzzles are proven to improve brain function, memory, and knowledge. It's like a Jeopardy round on paper with subjects like: geography, literature, history, science, sports, movies, tv, food, politics, pop culture, etc. There's also the satisfaction of finishing one (answers are in the back just in case!) Each book has 300 puzzles, keeping you busy every day for nearly a year. I've ordered 22 of them over the years. True story.

I like the crosswords, just challenging enough and the ability to remove the pages from the book.

The different levels of difficulty allow you to choose what you want to tackle at the time. The pages are perforated so can pull some out and stick them in your purse and have them with you at all times. Nice for crossword freaks.

I am truly a fan of this crossword book series!

The puzzles are fine. The perforations that allow for removal of the puzzles have not worked well, like in previous editions. I remove each puzzle before working it.

We love these books. The pages are perforated so we can put about 10 pages (and the answer pages to go with them) onto a clipboard which we keep in the bathroom. The first puzzles are pretty easy, but they get a bit harder as you work your way through the book. We have gone through several of these books and will continue to buy them.

Can't get good crossword books in the local bookstore. A big book like this usually lasts me a couple of years. I get so much enjoyment from them. Well worth the price , even with the shipping. A nice mix of puzzles to work on. Every couple of years I come back to Amazon for these books. I generally buy two or three at a time. For upstairs and downstairs here at home, and I always have a couple at my beach house. Thank you Amazon.
