I Read Banned Books by Laura Korzon – Mudpuppy – 500 pieces

If you are a regular reader you know how I feel about banned books. 🤬 A regular reader and member of my puzzle posse (and charter member of the PADS posse) who knows how I feel about both collages and banned books sent me this puzzle for an early birthday present. Of course it had to be next on my board – I love it!

It got sorted yesterday, but I wasn’t feeling well and spent much of the day in bed resting. Perhaps I got a bit too much rest during the day because about 1:30 this morning I was up and at the puzzle board getting this one started. 😴

As you can see I sorted them by section and started with the bottom row, but didn’t get all the pieces sorted correctly. It isn’t too surprising, I almost never get things sorted perfectly on the first try. That’s ok, nobody’s perfect – besides, it makes it more fun when I find the piece that’s missing.

It’s going really quickly, and I almost wish it had more pieces; it’s going to be over too soon! I’ve never done a Mudpuppy puzzle larger than 500 pieces, though I do know they make 1000 piecers. Has anyone ever done one of their larger piece count puzzles? If so, I’d love to hear what you think about the quality.

I’m not a fan of the sharp white backing that they use and I wish there was more than one piece shape, but the fit is excellent as is the image reproduction. The image is so entertaining to put together, of course I’m loving it!

Thanks again Penny, you chose a great puzzle! 💙
