Readers generally find 'Check and Mate' engaging, particularly praising its unique chess-themed setting and the development of its main character, Mallory. The humor and internal monologues are highlights, adding to the book's charm. However, opinions vary, with some appreciating the focus on chess over romance, while others were disappointed by this aspect. The portrayal of sexism within the chess world is well-received, adding depth to the narrative. Overall, it's seen as a cute and perfect read for younger audiences, though it may not satisfy those seeking a deep emotional connection.

👍 Unique chess-themed setting and character growth.

👎 May disappoint those seeking more romance.

TRES TRES déçue, le livre est vraiment axé sur les échecs et non sur la romance comme le prétend le résumé.
