## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ enjoyed putting this one together
*by A***C on March 24, 2021*

This picture is really very nice. I did this puzzle from the books "out" doing the edge last, which I never do. The quality of the pieces isn't the best, but for the price, picture, entertainment - well worth the price. It holds together very well, and didn't have any issues with pieces fitting together properly. I actually picked it up, and paraded it around the house to show it off, and didn't fall apart :-)I recommend this one, if you aren't fussy about thick, quality pieces.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learning Puzzles are my favorites
*by R***B on April 12, 2022*

I look for puzzles that will teach me something. My finished puzzle of the artist's painted books has been sitting on my coffee table for the last month. Every few days I use wiki to research another one of these books to learn about the author, the genre, the decade, the theme, the social or political significance. One question leads to the next, and this exploring results in a quick history lesson. I enjoyed the process of fine the pieces for each book. As others advised, the border pieces are best left for last.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fun and cool looking puzzle
*by T***A on March 25, 2021*

This puzzle was a lot of fun. Putting together each book cover made it feel like completing a bunch of mini puzzles inside the larger puzzle. Highly entertaining. And several of these book covers brought back fond memories. Puzzle quality was not exactly top of the line however. The pieces were a little bendable. Still, I would recommend— just handle with some care.
