The Notebook. Good movie/book. I never know whether to read the book first and then see the movie, or vice versa. Have you seen "Dear John" yet? I read the book. Will I enjoy the movie?

The Notebook won MTV Best Kiss Award:

I have no idea who Nicholas Sparks is/was, but I kind of figured it was note book. Another wonderful puzzle. Well done!

I haven't read the book, but I saw the movie and really liked it. Another nice puzzle, Teresa. Thanks

Fantastic. I really like how the book pages open up.

Ditto #3!

I thought it meant the movie was a musical-stumped again! Never say the movie but liked the book. If I like the book, I rarely like the movie. If I didn't like the book, I often like the movie. Some books should have just been movies and some books should never be movies.

Thanks Teresa

I really don't like the borders you're putting on these puzzles. I find them boring and tedious with no point (as you always say that "aha moment"). I do enjoy solving the smaller images inside the borders.

Thank you for sharing your opinion, "Syd." As you know, I appreciate honest, candid feedback.

I will probably continue to use border-frame designs on this series, for several reasons:

1) It is a fun challenge for me to come up with unique frames that are solvable (it's not easy to do).

2) The small objects that represent the two parts of the compound word are usually boring subjects in themselves, and the border makes the puzzle more interesting I think.

3) The border adds to the challenge of solving the puzzle, as in most cases it would be way too easy without the border.

4) It adds a third dimension to this series: first you solve the border, then you solve the two objects, then you solve the compound word puzzle.

5) It's a technique that is not commonly used, and most people like "different." In this case, several people have commented that they really like the borders.

But just so you don't think I am discounting your opinion (everyone's opinion should count for something), I will make my next puzzle without a border. :-)

I like your borders, Teresa :)

Teresa I like the borders in this series although I can see Syd's point as well. I am always anxious to see if I can guess the compound word but have to get the border done first. But keep doing whatever it is you do because I always look for your puzzles.

Teresa, no need for the ""'s around my name. Makes me feel like I'm make-believe (plus you don't do it to anyone else) :(

I enjoyed it and your borders. :)

Thanks, Telly.

I like the borders, and I'm loving this series. I love that after I get the "aha" moment for the image, I also get an "aha" moment for the word.

Thanks, Diana.
