Not Super Easy

I have used several other volumes in this series and find some of the puzzles in this edition very challenging. Other are clearly designed for the beginning crossword puzzle solver.

NY Easy is my Medium

I bought this book for my mom who was having a hard time finding "medium" difficulty crossword puzzle books. All the easy books are too easy and the hard too hard. Some of those combination books that went from easy to hard seem to skip the medium difficulty. So I thought I'd give the NY Times Easy books a try. I figured maybe that would be what we considered to be medium. Sure enough! She loves it! She, my sister, and I absolutely love this book. We bought other volumes and found them to be just the right amount of difficult as well. If you consider the NY Times puzzles way over your head but find the grocery store books too easy, this one will suit you perfectly.
