Back when we first started Bookreporter, I read THE QUEEN’S GAMBIT by Walter Tevis, so it has been such fun to see how much viewers have been enjoying the adaptation on Netflix. Last night, I saw that it was their #1 show in the United States. Each day, there have been comments from friends about it on social media. I have read that there is an uptick in chess set sales, especially to young women. I have never played the game (I played backgammon and cribbage when others were playing chess), but it has made me to want to learn. Cory loved to play; he even carved a set for himself a few years ago. I may need to find a set in the house and get him over here to give me some lessons. By the way, I read that Agadmator’s Chess Channel breaks down each move from the final game in the show here.
