Title: overall its OK
Review: Not bad, but typical of New York Times puzzles, there are things that only a New Yorker would know.

Title: just hard enough
Review: These were just great, not so hard you spent half your time looking up the answers, but hard enough to make you think. I'm off this morning to buy another one just like it.

Title: I'm surprised this has as good of reviews as it does
Review: I'm surprised this has as good of reviews as it does. Mostly the puzzles are okay but many of the clues felt like they were above Tuesday level. It's frustrating when there are multiple obscure pop culture/fine arts clues that intersect in one area so you can't even figure out what they might be from the other answers. I would expect this more from a Wednesday level puzzle. It means I can never fully complete a puzzle which really diminished the satisfaction. I ordered the Monday crosswords as well so I'll be interested to see how it compares.

Title: Easy warm ups
Review: Fairly easy puzzles - good for those lazy times when you want to only think a little bit. there were a couple of clues here and there that made absolutely no sense but that is just the way it goes sometimes. All together easy and fun puzzles to solve.

Review: The puzzles theyâve chosen exclude the types of puzzles with circled boxes, and they donât bother to shade the themed clues. Book is also pretty small
