The book is difficult enough to be interesting but not so difficult that it is frustrating. I am enjoying it

5Challenging Acrostics #9  Aug 15, 2007
By Elsa S. Grieder "seeker"
These puzzles are extremely hard but they are clever and fun to do. I've only been able to do two so far without cheating ie: looking up the answers. They are tricky but I'm getting used to some of the tricks such as realizing that a single letter need not be an "a" or an "i" . And clues can have several different meanings and word forms -what looks like a noun can be a verb etc.For example a recent clue was "single" and I was trying to think of a word for unmarried or a one dollar bill. The answer was "one base hit."
