Do you enjoy challenges? Do you like a good puzzle, one that really exercises your brain to come up with the solution? If you answered yes to the above, I have a great book for you.103 PUZZLE QUIZZES, by the Grabarchuk Family, is the 4th volume of the Top Rated Puzzlebook: Puzzle Quizzes Series. The puzzles are original creations by the Grabarchuk Family and exclusively for Kindle and Kindle apps, like my iPad. To be honest with you, I'm not much of a puzzle solving person. When I can't figure out the answer, I get frustrated too easily. It's been years since I attempted a puzzle, but I like to read a variety of books, so I decided to give this one a chance. And surprise, surprise, I did better with the puzzles than I thought I would. Oh, a lot of them were too tough for me. But the book starts out with simple puzzles and progresses to harder and harder. The neat thing about it is the book is interactive. You choose your answer by clicking on a button and it tells you whether you're right or wrong. When I was wrong I tried again and then studied the correct answer to see what I had done wrong. The toughest puzzles for me were the Hidden Material ones. I'm going to blame it on my glasses. They are my challenge now, to see how many I can solve the first time.With the long, hot summer days ahead, 103 PUZZLE QUIZZES would be perfect to keep you entertained while sitting under the air conditioner, drinking your iced tea or whatever, and developing your thinking skills. If I can do it, you can too. So what are you waiting for? Start puzzling. Have fun.
