Mankeke, 105 pieces. Usually I wouldn't have gone for such a small puzzle from an Amazon seller, even at a relatively low price, but it was a cat made of cats. How could I resist? And it was fun for what it was. 3/5

Morning Dove
East Texas Piney Woods Puzzles, 325 pieces. Thick hand-cut pieces, on the small but not tiny side, from this Etsy seller, with cutting that is consistent enough to provide a challenge given the image but not frustrating. No whimsies. 4/5 a nice handcutter

Great Bengal
Kevin Sloan, Naughty Bird
Artifact, 270 pieces. This one has a lot of pictures because of the large number of charming interacting whimsies despite relatively lower piece count. The dark background provides most of the difficulty. 3/5

Stave, 75 pieces, Dee Rogers. A fun two-sword Teaser with difficulty generated by the highly similar, but perfectly distinguishable by feel, pieces. 6/10
