Mindbending? I was pretty disappointed with this book. I haven't found a single puzzle in it that would be anywhere close to "mind bending". I personally love doing this type of puzzle, and purchased several different books of this variety, and this one was definitely my least favorite. I finally got tired of the monotony of these too easy puzzles, and gave the book to my 9-year-old. She's not having any trouble solving them either.
Not very challenging I truly enjoy Kathy Weaver's creativity, but I'm making the same complaint I made with the last book. Most of the puzzles are too easy! She has a tendency toward symmetry which almost gives away the puzzle.
I would think it would be a wonderful book for beginners, though! If you've never tried Hanjie and you're thinking about it, give this book a shot. Good quality paper is combined with reasonable sized grids and the final results are the puzzles are usually fun! Also, if you're looking for a book to carry in your purse to fill in time while waiting at the dentist's office, this is the way to go.
More Art Puzzles By Number: From Easy to Mind Bending Very entertaining and absorbing. Great stress reliever and gets the brain really working. A wonderful way to "get away". You feel like you have really accomplished something when you solve the puzzle. Hours and hours of great entertainment.
Great Large Print As a reader of large-print books, I adore Kathy Weaver's puzzles. I never have to dig out my magnifying glass. And the pages of this book do not fall out the way her other book did.
Too Easy I am interested in books for advanced solvers. I am not well, and books like this help me pass the time when I am confined to my house.
