MY THOUGHTS:

I used to love Word Search Puzzles and for whatever reason I stopped doing them, probably got busy or sidetracked but I admit I miss them.  They are great for killing time, unwinding and keep your mind sharp!  “The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Word Search Puzzles” is a great book because not only does it feature 301 word search puzzles to tackle but it also has puzzles on fun topics.  There are puzzles on celebrities, years, rhyming words and more!  Then to make it even more fun, there is a mystery word in each puzzle to find that goes along with the puzzle topic but is not listed as a word to find – just to give it that extra special touch!  I was going to give this book to my mom but I decided I couldn’t part with it and I would just buy her one too!  It really is a fun and challenging book!
