I've only done some of the Sudoku puzzles, but this is the perfect difficulty level for me. Some of them are awfully tough and require some real logical thought to complete. Sudoku's a great pasttime during a long flight home.

I know that it doesn't really count as "reading" but I finished a book while in CT and mom bought this for me so I'd have an option of something to do on the train... and the cover art is awesome.
