5.0 out of 5 stars Love these crosswords! I just wish they were in a half-size format
Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2023

I’ve been doing crossword puzzles since I was in high school, which is now over 50 years. Yep, guess I’m old. So the puzzles in the old subscription were getting stale; same authors and editors over and over. The Boston Globe puzzles, therefore are a bunch of new authors and editors, hurray! These are challenging but not so hard that I’m looking up every other word! Nor are they so specific to a region or city that not being a resident there is a disadvantage. So yes, love these. My only issue is that I prefer doing puzzles in my lap, so this large format is uncomfortable for me.

Doing crosswords keeps my mind active. These are certainly not easy, but they aren’t the very hardest. They are challenging to say the least. The Sunday Omnibus puzzles are the best, harder than the daily ones with 200 puzzles.

These puzzles were written maybe twenty years ago just for a point of reference. If you’re much younger than I am, you might not get the references and wit.
