Book Review: Only the Hardest Puzzles: A Vexing Variety of Crosswords, Sudoku & More1


Only the Hardest Puzzles by Willa Chen

Only the Hardest Puzzles: A Vexing Variety of Crosswords, Sudoku & More1
This 8" x 9" book offers a lot of different styles of puzzles to solve.
Table of contents lists the types and answers at the back.
Category of puzzles are: crosswords, word searches, Sudoku, catcudokus, kakuros, cryptograms and more.
Introduction page talks about how the author liked to do puzzles when in the third grade.
Each category starts out with an example of a very small puzzle so you can get the idea of how to solve it.
Each puzzle itself has clue lists on the left hand side of the book and puzzle grid on the right hand side. Words are easy to see and numbers on the grid as well.
Like the idea of the mesh puzzle and also the themes.
Word search puzzles contain clues and grid on same page.
This will fill my time while we have been in the house already 5 weeks and have at least another 4 weeks to go, it not longer.
Acknowledgements and about the author are listed at the end.
I received this review copy from The Callisto Publisher's Club and this is my honest opinion.
