Crossword Puzzle Book #7

I have purchased Simon and Schuster crossword puzzles and the mega crossword book with 300 puzzles beats the price for any crossword book I have seen. The puzzles tear out making it easy to work them any place. Some clues are repeated but mostly they are original and up to date. I like the answers in the back in case I get stuck and really want to know what word I missed. I am now on Book #7 and expect to order the next issues when they are available.

my favorite crossword series

These puzzles are challenging but not super hard. The puzzles are well placed on the page and the typeface is readable; the pages tear out neatly and easily and the paper is fairly good, easy to erase and bright enough to see.

Great Choice

I totally enjoy crossword puzzles and this collection is great! There are puzzles of different lengths and difficulty providing something for any crossword "junkie" - it is also nice to be able to tear out a page or two for travel.
