I completed many of the 65 puzzles in this spiral-bound book, a few I got one or two letters wrong. I appreciate the explanations given along with the solutions.
Sure, they're variety cryptics, so they deserve 5 stars. But a word of warning. When the "variety" structure is not too demanding of the authors, the entries are common words. But when the authors feel stretched, they have no qualms about using obscure words. If you're a solver who normally avoids using a dictionary or the Internet as aids, you might want to occasionally make an exception here.

Two other characters that I really liked are Guo and Meemaw. Guo is like your grandma and Meemaw is your mother. They both cared for Mei Li and Marcus.
I loved this last line..."Mei's arms wrap around me, holding us together while our old life crumbles behind us and we speed toward whatever comes next."… (más)
