Queer Pride Puzzles, Vol. 1: Variety Puzzles All With LGBTQ+ Themes and Answers
Howdy! I'm Kerry Shatzer, author of Queer Pride Puzzles Volume One. It's a first-of-its-kind collection of variety puzzles all with LGBTQ+ themes and answers. Thanks for considering getting my book or letting me know what you think of it if you've got it! Visit my website at https://DiversionsPuzzles.net for more info and links. Sometimes it's backordered on Amazon, but Bookbaby's Bookshop should be faster since they helped me publish it. I'd love to know your thought about this book! I think it's educational, inspirational, challenging and fun, but don't take my word for it! Kirkus Reviews says Get It! In fact here's some other things they've said about it:
"Looking for a dollop of LGBTQ+ lore with your brainteasers? This beguiling puzzle book has you covered."
"Shatzer offers an extraordinary variety of puzzle types at many skill levels, from simplistic crosswords to difficult, abstract take-offs on classics..."
"Hardcore puzzle afficionados and casual gamers alike will find plenty of amusement here. An inventive and entertaining collection of japes."
-Kirkus Reviews
Please check it out! And as always, happy puzzling!
