A review by bookishdaylight
Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood

emotional funny lighthearted mysterious fast-paced

4.0

I easily devoured reading the book with how fun and witty the story is. As someone who enjoys chess and loves the show The Queen’s Gambit. I thoroughly enjoyed this book in a whim. 

I’m kind of used to how Ali Hazelwood writes so it’s expected with her typically references which might seem a lot but doesn’t bother me since its ya.

The characters are very interesting and a bit refreshing to read in a new environment, especially the idea of them playing chess.

I feel like this might be my favorite from her work so far.
