Review: I enjoyed reading this! - As someone who already plays the game, I found this book to be a great refresher. It reminded me of important concepts (basics actually) and helped me brush up on my skills. One thing I loved was learning new concepts, like Zwischenzug (an in-between move). I also feel that the book has helped me improve my endgame skills. For example, I now know how to calculate if my opponent’s King can catch my pawn before it promotes. This has made me more confident in close games. Top of head, Levy also talks about keeping tension in the game and not trading pieces unless it helps -something I am not good at as my old strategy was to have a good pawn structure, then trade immediately to reach end game. This tip really changed how I think during matches. Another thing I like is that his writing is friendly and easy to understand, which makes the book fun to read. In fact, I think if you watched any of his YouTube videos, it would feel like he is just right there coaching you as you read. Lastly, I appreciate that he included links to videos for extra help. The book was so good that I am playing with the idea of buying the physical version to reread it later. As for my recommendation, I am recommending this book to everyone. Whether you are new to chess or you already play. It is a fantastic guide that is easy to follow and full of useful tips! Thanks, Levy!
Review: If you want to crush your hubby in chess buy this book. 🤣 - Must buy for anyone learning. My husband asked me to play him in chess last week. I never really played. He smoked me. I bought this book without telling him and challenged him to a game a week later and I beat him. He was really impressed I learned so much in a short amount of time. This book has taught me a lot about chess but also about strategic thinking in general. I also recommend the chess deck! We each take a card to study and use it to play each other. It’s really fun.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Most Awesome Chess Book Ever!
*by A***R on March 24, 2026*

I've read scores of chess instruction books over the past 50 years. "How to Win at Chess" is by far the most comprehensive, easy to understand, and strategically laid out explanation of winning approaches to chess I have ever read. I cannot wait until Levy's next book due out in October 2026. I am counting the days until its release. If you want to take your chess game to the next level, don't waste time figuring out what book to read and study. Read Levy's book!
