For me, I don’t mind the occasional reference to the real world, it’s not something that bothers me a lot. It was young love and even swoon-worthy but there wasn't much rivalry between Mallory and Nolan like the way Ali promoted it. Its like standing on a log in the water, constantly being tipped over here and there, your arms flailing about, never knowing when you'll finally lose your balance and plunge into the depths below. I only use Goodreads as a reader, to review and hype books that I've loved (many of these book are ARCs received from fellow authors).

Oh, and I know Ali Hazelwood gets talked about for always making her male characters huge and her female characters tiny, so I tallied out how many times Nolan was described in any way as "big" or big compared to the main character, and I have concluded that it was around 13. I didn't like her but I also feel like she never deserves any of the shit she went through for years. will enjoy reading this review, and read this review in it's entirety (yes i might be underestimating your attention spans) and for that i will persevere through book hell. I have a love-hate relationship with Ali Hazelwood's writing and please excuse me if this review gets a tad too expressive 😊 I was really excited to read this but the whole experience was a massively disappointing one.But that didn’t changed the way i ended up adoring this book and fell in love with Nolan my loverboy. this poor boy has had it enough, he’s tired, he’s bored, he’s almost entering an existencial mid life crisis in his teenage years - like can you imagine being so intelligent and gifted that playing chess with other grandmasters (they’re like the cool and talented kids of chess) put’s you into a sleeping coma since their moves are so predictable to you.

But her father's family has a complicated history - one tied up with the fight for equality for the Nought population. I know that Ali’s only ever written STEM-themed books, so I appreciate how she stepped out of the normal for her YA debut. our timothee chalamet goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, adam driver, you were bigger than the whole sky of chess. idk) and the story becomes engaging enough to make you forget that nolan is considered the sexiest boy of our generation and that there are several edits of him on tiktok - and it’s probably playing end game by taylor swift as a background audio. I am honestly pretty disappointed in this, since I've been expecting this book since it first was announced, and since the cover was first revealed, and I was so excited!

I enjoyed that the characters are older than most YA, being in that sort of anxiety-ridden purgatory between high school and “being an adult”. can’t tell you that since, duh, spoilers, but what i’ll say is that whatever happened in the end didn’t bother me and it was actually necessary for mal’s growth - so there you have it, my little spoiler munchkin.
