Neat idea! I've been researching novelty word searches, and I love how the aesthetic, mechanics, and concept all align really well here.
I like that there's no diagonal words, since the puzzles seem quite tough already. (I only did a few.)
Possible typo: The bottom-right of Lillian's puzzle (above the Y) seems to have a W instead of an M, affecting the final message.
Hi, thanks a lot for the feedback, I'm really happy to hear you like the book! The difficulty was on my mind, I considered adding a word list for each puzzle to make it easier, but there wasn't room really, and I kind of like the idea of the reader/player finding words on their own.
My goodness you're totally right about that typo, thanks so much! I'll upload a corrected version.
In case you're interested: I finished making my own word search book, 12 Word Searches. (It's free.) The puzzles get tricky later on, so solving takes at least 2-3 hours. https://playcebo.itch.io/12-word-searches (Sadly there are not many drawings in it, just puzzles.)
