The response to our Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Puzzle Book #1 was so overwhelming it demanded an encore performance. So we sent our premiere puzzlemaker Stephanie Spadaccini and her team of top puzzle constructors back to the Bathroom Reader archives to seek out more tantalizing trivia to craft into more popular puzzles for aficionados everywhere. As Hollywood knows, sequels are challenging, but we have managed a second act that is, if anything, even better than our first. Here again are the most popular types of puzzles--word searches, crosswords, criss-crosses, anagrams, cryptograms, double-crostics, and brain-teasers--along with cryptolists, trivia quizzes, palindromes, and more. Every puzzle is ranked according to degree of difficulty and every one is fun.
People have always enjoyed solving puzzles and the number of puzzlers is growing by leaps and bounds. So sharpen your pencil and settle in for a satisfying session of mental aerobics.

Adrienne Raphel

Adventures with Crosswords and the Puzzling People Who Can't Live Without Them

"This cultural and personal history of crosswords and their fans, written by an aficionado, is diverting, informative, and discursive." --The New York Times Book Review, Editors' Choice

A delightful, erudite, and immersive exploration of the crossword puzzle and its fascinating history
 
Almost as soon as it appeared, the crossword puzzle became indispensable to our lives. Invented practically by accident in 1913, when a newspaper editor at the New York World was casting around for something to fill empty column space, it became a roaring commercial success almost overnight. Ever since then, the humble puzzle has been an essential ingredient of any newspaper worth its salt. But why, exactly, are the crossword's satisfactions so sweet?

Blending first-person reporting from the world of crosswords with a delightful telling of its rich literary history, Adrienne Raphel dives into the secrets of this classic pastime. Thinking Inside the Box is an ingenious love letter not just to the abiding power of the crossword but to the infinite joys and playful possibilities of language itself.
