What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers generally enjoyed the book's engaging storyline, strong female protagonist, and the unique setting of competitive chess. Reviewers appreciated the "rivals to lovers" romance and the sweet, supportive relationship between the main characters. However, many readers were surprised by its young adult classification, feeling it might better suit a new adult audience due to its mature themes and character dynamics.

The book's handling of family struggles and the competitive chess environment was also well-received, making it a memorable read for most.
