For those who share my love for and frustration with crossword puzzles, I highly recommend:

"Crossworld: One Man's Journey into America's Crossword Obsession"
Mark Romano
Broadway Books, 2005.

It's a fascinating look at the people who construct crossword puzzles and those who obsessively try to solve them, with some special attention to puzzles in The New York Times, and why they get harder from Monday -> Friday.
