This was my first Grabarchuk  puzzlebook, but I'm sure it won't be my last.  Most of the puzzles seem to be spacial, logical, or counting, but they are the most unique set of puzzles I've come across in a year's time with my Kindle.  I downloaded this while it was available as a free Christmas download, along withPuzzlebook: 100 Puzzle Quizzes (color and interactive!).  Given the price of this book and the other puzzlebooks, I'd recommend spending the additional few dollars to get 10 times as many puzzles... once you start playing, you're going to want to do more of them.I have a K3 so the color doesn't come through on my device.  However, the puzzles are easy to decipher without requiring the color so there's no loss of functionality because of that.  The puzzles and answers are easy to navigate (just use your page forward/back and 5-way controller), but make sure to read the directions before you start or you'll jump to the answers instead of the next puzzle.  I did find the "solution" pages to be a little sparse for some of the puzzles, especially for the one puzzle I guessed at.  Once I knew the answer, I went back to the puzzle and was able to figure out why it was the answer, but some additional explanation would have been nice.Finally, an observation I had after having played many of the Amazon Digital Services games.  There are no hints, timer, or score with this game.  Again, not a criticism - it is an electronic puzzlebook after all - but just be aware of that if you like to play logical games for time.
