Title: Challenging but not too hard
Review: My husband likes these Monday crossword puzzles. This one is challenging but he doesn't have to "cheat" and look at the back. He likes the spiral binding and the larger size.

Title: Very Easy Is Sometimes What's Needed
Review: Book was in great condition, like new, great price. Crosswords are great because it gives my buzzy brain a problem to solve that doesn't really matter.

Title: fun challenge for a noob
Review: I've just started Crossword puzzles, these things are a challenge for me because I'm not well verse in pop culture, and i dont know much about bands or people outside the 80s and up. A lot of the clues are from the 70s and back. So... I wind up having to research who people are and it is giving me a new insight on things I didnt know before.But they are a fun challenge for me, a total beginner.

Title: Monday Funday puzzles
Review: Fun to do and easy, just like it says. I haven't Xword puzzles in years but the ones in the regular daily paper in my hometown is too easy just like the ones found in magazines. So, I thought I'd go to my dad's favorite source: New York Times. The easiest are found on Mondays and become progressive more difficult culminating in the famous Sunday ones. One step at a step, Mondays are perfect for me at the moment. These really are pretty simple and can be done in 10-15 minutes.

Title: Puzzles are great but print is small and it needs to be spiral bound
Review: The puzzles are great and exactly what I expected however the print is small and sometimes blurry and because the spine is not spiral bound you have to bend the book around so there's an awkward bulge on one side.

Title: No cross words
Review: The Monday puzzles are a bit too easy for me at this point, but I have no cross words for them. I also got the Tuesday crosswords and that seems to be my speed. Threatening to get the Wednesday crosswords.
