I got this today but I actually Love this book. This is so unique and It’s a great and fun way to learn things you wouldn’t actually learn otherwise. Unless you were in the medical profession.
I did find It really forces you to think, especially in the word searches.
Can’t wait to finish the whole book! Who knows when you might need to know things. Feeling like I’m the new Meredith Grey!
I’ve learned the names of parts of my body I didn’t know I’ve had for 32 years!
I feel this could actually get people learning things that wouldn’t normally read. Well done.
Thank you for the Arc copy NetGalley and White Lion Publishing.

Love this book. It’s a great and fun way to learn about anatomy. A must have for any medical student. It really forces you to think, especially in the word searches. I’ve learned tHe names of parts of my body I didn’t know I had! Every high school needs multiple copies of this book in their library.

Head to toe, a unique medical challenge! Whether you are a medical professional or a novice or just an admirer of all things medical, you will appreciate the puzzles offered in this book. You can learn, or play, but why not both! The anatomy is thorough, and the puzzles are varied in type and level of difficulty. Thankfully, the answers are provided in a key the end of the book.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and all opinions expressed are my own and freely given.

This is such a cool book! We are using it with our unit study on anatomy and human body systems and my kiddos are thoroughly enjoying it!

This puzzle book is so amazingly done! Love the design, the illustration and it's always great to have fun while learning! It's good for both young people but also adult people that want to know more and keep their brain busy.
I'd recommend this book - it's very well done and the puzzles are not boring at all.
Thanks NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Gray's Anatomy Puzzle Book is a cool way to learn about the body.
It consists of short overviews of different parts of the body - limbs, main organs and systems, followed by a review section in the form of a few puzzles. The puzzles are cleaver and the variety is nice.
The information itself is short and quite basic, making it accessible to both older and younger readers. The illustrations are really nice as well.

This book is brilliant – really tests your brain! A long time since I’ve had anything to do with studying anatomy but found this really interesting and engaging.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

If you like to learn along with your puzzles, this is the book for you. Every chapter includes what you need to solve the puzzles, but the information is solid and not watered down. Recommended!

An interesting premise on learning. Each "chapter" (about 3 pages) contains the same things. One page a few paragraphs delving into a specific part of the body listing muscles, bones, tendons, and how things work. These are fairly high level and interesting to read. This page is followed by puzzles that usually have the answers contained in the paragraphs above with a few outliers. The puzzles are actually a fun mix of search a words, Sudoku, matching and more.
It was a lot to digest. I would HIGHLY recommend buying this book in the physical form as it will be easier to do the puzzles as well as flip back and forth to the answers.

Four stars

The Grey's Anatomy Puzzle Book by Gareth Moore and Gabrielle M Finn was fantastic! Thanks Netgalley. I took a forensic anthropology class years ago and this book would have helped so much. I loved the puzzles to help me remember what I just read. I really loved that class and this book was a great refresher. I can imagine a lot of classes would have use for a book like this. It was also very helpful to have the solutions to the puzzles at the end of the book. This will definitely be a book I look at again and will be sharing with others.

The authors of this book have really put a lot of thought and effort into it. Broken down in easy sections. Each chapter concentrates on a different part of the body. A good description is then followed by puzzles to answer questions rather than just a question and answer format. This has been done in such a fun way it’s sure to aid revision. I’ve good a good understanding of anatomy but some of the questions had me thinking. Follow by a groan and a laugh when you get the answer.
This is a brilliant revision tool.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the arc in return for an honest review

This book is amazing for college students studying for the medical profession or anyone else who wants a challenge. The skeletal system and the organs are laid out in 36 chapters with detailed knowledgeable excerpts, sketched pictures and a variety of puzzles the reader must have general knowledge about. The questions are both easy and hard with the solutions in the back of the book, , a perfect way to study
This is also a great gift.

This was actually pretty fun if not a bit easy, especially as the puzzles relate to what you just read and they can become easy to answer ;) But I did learn a few things and think it would be great for high school/college age .

This book does more than just tell about anatomy, it provides a way to stimulate your memory about the parts of the body. The different parts, such as feet, neck, internal organs, and others are described in a brief summary. Then various puzzles are included to you have to solve using the information you just read.

This would be an excellent book for someone who is in the medical field, but it could also be enjoyed by someone who wants a challenging puzzle book. The puzzles vary in difficulty, so you can be sure to find one that fits what you are looking for in a challenge.

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher through NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

A fantastic book!

I love all things gory and anatomy, and who doesn't love a good puzzle?!
There are a fantastic range of puzzles in this book, and I like that they are of varying difficulties as well. As someone with a science background, I was interested to see at who this was aimed. And I really like that this is suitable for a range of people, whether used for revision for children or young adults at school, for the simple pleasure of puzzle solving in a different way or to test yourself and your science knowledge.

I absolutely loved it, and the way it is broken up into sections works really well.
