Curuchaga Books is the independent imprint of author Tomas Curuchaga. Every title starts with a real problem, a real reader and a simple test: will this book earn its place on the kitchen table?
i.
Built around real life
Printed tabs, the right prompts and room to write. Our planners are organized the way families actually need to find things.
ii.
Easy on the eyes
Large print editions in 16-point type, generous margins and calm layouts, because a useful book should never be a struggle to read.
iii.
Checked before print
Every logic puzzle is solved by code to confirm it has exactly one answer. Every page is proofed for print before it reaches you.
A good book for real life does not ask for your attention. It quietly gives you back your time.
The idea behind every Curuchaga book
Good questions
Before you order.
Still unsure which book fits? Write to [email protected]. A real person answers.
Where can I buy Curuchaga books?
Every book is sold on Amazon, which prints and ships it. Each book page on this site links straight to its Amazon listing, where you can see the current price, delivery dates and reviews.
Which couples organizer should I choose?
The Final Affairs Organizer for Couples is our most complete edition. Choose the Large Print edition for 16-point type, Side by Side if you want two columns so each partner answers separately, or the Hardcover if you want it to last on a shelf for decades. My Last Group Project covers the same ground with humor.
Are the large print books really large?
Yes. Our large print planners use 16-point type, and the Extra Large Print puzzle library uses big bold letters with one puzzle per full-size 8.5 x 11 page.
Do the puzzles have answers?
Every puzzle book includes complete answer keys. Our logic puzzles are checked by code to confirm each one has exactly one solution.
Are the planners legal documents?
No. Our planners help you record and organize information for your family. They are not a will or legal advice; for estates and legal decisions, please talk to a qualified professional.
Can I order books in bulk or for a group?
Amazon handles every order. For large orders, care homes or activity programs, write to [email protected] and we will help you find the right edition.
Play along
A new puzzle, every day.
Short mysteries you can solve in five seconds, color reveals, and a look inside every book. Comment your answer and see if you were right the next day.
