Four letter word BL_G, for New York Times crosswords?

May 11, 2021 5:32 AM

I'm looking for blogs that analyze/review the New York Times crossword puzzle every day. I already know about Rex Parker but he can be curmudgeonly and surely there are other perspectives? Google-fu is failing me, so I would love any personal recs.

Best answer: crosswordfiend has daily discussions of many major puzzles, including the New York Times. Low on vitriol.

Best answer: I start by reading xword info, for the constructor comments, head to Rex Parker for the vitriol, then glance over Horace and Frances discuss the NYT crossword puzzle most days.
