Voyage Round the World

 Liberty, 502 pieces. Cute puzzle with a whimsy--a Buddha--I didn't recall from elsewhere.

Purple Haze

 Par-L, 500 pieces. Unusual shape, difficult image because there's so much going on, cutouts for the special guitar pick/knob pieces. 3/5

knobs, placed at random because I know nothing about guitars

Celebration

 Liberty, 408 pieces. Unusual Liberty in having a word--the puzzle title--in there. A lot of border which you will either enjoy as unusual or hate as frustrating. 3/5

Morning, Steve R. Coffey

 Stumpcraft, 595 pieces. A difficult image with lots of color line cutting/interlocks, a Stumpcraft standard by this point. I could live with a slightly looser fit but this had a bunch of surprises. 4/5

Desert Garden, Cynthia Fitting

 Fool's Gold, 320 pieces. Huge pieces, very swirly, very very tight fit, enough to endanger the pieces if one isn't careful. A really intriguing experience. 4/5

Frog, Sue Coccia

 Liberty, 498 pieces. The size and density of the image combine to make this one of the harder Coccia animals I've done. Sadly, there was a missing piece, but it was still a steadily difficult assembly. 3/5

Valentine Rukenenko, Charming Village

 Artifact, 289 pieces. Whimsical image with lots of different sized things going on. 3/5
