Puzzle Baron's Logic Puzzles, Volume 2: More Hours of Brain-Challenging Fun!

I enjoy solving a few puzzles at a time as a way to relax.

I've tried 4 or 5 different types, so glad they made a second volume, I enjoy these the most. Progressively gets harder throughout the book

Since I was a kid, I've always enjoyed logic puzzles. I had a teacher that would give them to us for extra credit. After picking back up and completing an old book of puzzles I found at Borders (that tells you how long ago), I went on the hunt for another compact book of puzzles that could challenge me. Finding a book compact in size and light was important to me because I often carry my books with me during my morning commute on the train. This fit the bill!Pros: There's tons of puzzles - 194 to be exact. I also enjoy that there's a little grid on the side of each puzzle to tell you the solve percentage rate, the average time of completion, and the fastest time of completion. The latter gets my competitiveness going.Cons: I wish that, like with my last book, there were thorough explanations for the answers. The back is just a couple pages of an answer key without any explanations if you get stuck. So far this hasn't been an issue, but it would've been nice.I still give the book five stars overall because it's been quite fun, challenging and pretty consistent.

Puzzles are different than online but easy to learn. Fun!

Book is great and the puzzles look fun. It was clearly torn before it was packaged and still shipped, though...

I love that there are three editions of this book. I’ve finished the first and will absolutely buy the third when I’m finished with this one.

I have found myself doing logic puzzles before bedtime, and thus filled up Puzzle Barron's volume 1. I noticed there was a volume two, made my purchase for it late at night, and it arrived the next day (thanks Prime!). I noticed that there aren't as many of the extremely hard puzzles (15% or so success rate) as the original version, and was curious why; however, it's ok. There are plenty of "challenging enough" puzzles in there. Like the original, the author lists the average time for completion, success rate, and the user name of the fastest winner from their online platform for each puzzle. I really like their font size and quality of paper, as many logic puzzle books are made with cheap, thin paper. I'll continue to use the book to help wind my brain down at the end of the day. So glad they made a volume 2!

I love my Baron's puzzle book. I originally discovered them just by googling logic puzzles and after getting sick of doing them online or printing them out, I decided to buy a book. Compared to logic puzzles you can buy in the magazine rack at grocery stores, these are exceptionally better. The puzzles keep me busy during my down time. I love that each one has a solve rate, average time and best time next to it. I enjoy timing myself and calculating how much faster (or slower) I was than average. I also like how the puzzles in the front are easy and the puzzles in the back get harder. Good things aside, I wish the book was a little bigger so the puzzles could be bigger. I'm only 17 and I'm annoyed with how small the font is! It would also be helpful if the answer key explained how each puzzle was logically solved instead of just giving answers. All in all I'm giving it five stars because it truly is a great product and I recommend it for anyone looking for logic puzzles.

The puzzles should be from easy to medium to hard. I found these puzzles are too easy

Excellent book for those who love such logic puzzles. Looking forward to more such titles

(Valoración basada en gran parte en la del Volumen 1, con pequeñas ediciones donde corresponda)Es de agradecer encontrar un libro de pasatiempos de deducción, que aquí en España es extremadamente difícil de ver. En ese sentido, hay pasatiempos suficientes para muchos ratos muertos. El volumen 2 es más sencillo que el 1, y es un mejor punto de partida para el principiante.Lo que me resulta un poco aburrido es que es extremadamente conservador. A diferencia de otros editores más creativos, no tiene problemas que combinen el modelo clásico con otros recursos, como mapas (donde, por ejemplo, las casas están organizadas de tal manera que se puede hablar de "una de las casas más al oeste" o que algo está más al norte que otra cosa). Tampoco hay pistas que se basen en la paridad de los números, en que el valor del individuo x sea n unidades mayor al de y o en el género de los individuos, por ejemplo. Es una lástima porque es el tipo de pistas que ayudan a pensar de una manera algo menos estandarizada y a que haya ganas de hacer varios pasatiempos seguidos.

I bought this for my husband (as I threw a puzzle book out, whoops and he hadn't finished it.) I guess he was pleased with it as he didn't put it down after he started on them. He even explained to me (who hates puzzles how to do them!) So one happy husband, and one relieved wife!

These are a lot harder than any other books I have bought, great for getting the brain working
