Ali Hazelwood Spicy Summer Books Editorial Review
The novel "Check & Mate" by Ali Hazelwood has received generally positive reviews. One reviewer was impressed by the chemistry between the main characters, Mallory and Nolan, who are a chess prodigy and champion, respectively. The side characters were also praised for being fully developed and memorable. The book was described as entertaining and engaging, offering insights into the world of professional chess. However, the beginning was Considered slow, and the ending was perceived as abrupt and predictable. Additionally, there were mixed views on the categorization of the book as young adult, with some feeling that it would have been better suited as an adult novel due to the protagonist's actions. Despite this, the story was deemed captivating, especially for those who enjoyed "The Queen's Gambit." The representation of a strong, successful woman in a male-dominated game was celebrated, along with the rivals-to-lovers romance. The handling of the romance, with a more experienced female lead, was commended for creating an interesting dynamic. However, some readers expressed disappointment in the family situation, particularly concerning the mother's handling of her health and the responsibility placed on the young protagonist. Despite these criticisms, the book was ultimately praised for its entertaining nature, sweet romance, and portrayal of fierce chess competition. The brief negative review from a reader who found the book to be just "okay" suggests that the novel may not resonate with all readers.
