I'm currently reading Crossworld by Marc Romano. Ostensibly (take that Marc!) it is about how he started doing crossword puzzles and his experience at a tournament. It might not sound like it but it is actually very funny if you can get past one thing: Marc seems to have a need to use Brobdingnagian words every few pages. Words like, well, Brobdingnagian, quidnuncs, or poitrine (whatever that means). I'm only half way through but if you have any interest in crossword puzzles and access to a good dictionary (like maybe one that has "poitrine" in it), I recommend it.
