This roundup of book puzzles is broken up by piece count, and as of this writing, every single one is in stock. Put your orders in now for yourself or for treating your friends and family to great gifts for the holidays. Note: if you’re serious about puzzles—however you define serious—or want the opportunity to move your work without hassle, I cannot recommend purchasing a puzzle piece sorter and puzzle board enough. As someone with a lot of cats, this has been a game-changer for not losing pieces, as well as for being able to do the puzzle in fits and starts and knowing that what has been worked on won’t be disturbed. I’d recommend skipping the puzzle boards that allow you to roll up the puzzle. They don’t work neatly, and the investment in a board is smarter.
