This book contains 200 Sunday Times crossword puzzles from the Shortz era, and you know how witty the definitions can be! Like all Sunday Times puzzles, they are of moderate difficulty, not super-hard like the Saturday ones.

The book is well-made, with good quality paper -- much better than the slick glossy Times Sunday magazine paper that doesn't take pencil or ink marks very well -- and for those like me who tear the pages out and then use a clipboard, they tear out easily with no ragged edges.

As for the puzzles, well -- is there anyone, anywhere who makes better big Sunday-style puzzles? I've done puzzles from papers all over the USA and the Times are easily the most fun to work.

Heartily recommended to puzzle fanatics and casual solvers alike.

I love to do crosswords. If I see a crossword anywhere, I check it out. However, I only do the puzzles that challenge me, and the Sunday Times puzzles are the most fun. This is a great puzzle book.

My grandmother got this as a christmas present. Between this and her new nook she's no longer idling not doing anything. She has arthritis so she can't always knit, this gives her stuff to pass the time.

Solid book for those loving crosswords.
