Slow Start
For me, this one seemed to take a while to get into. I think Mallory is an interesting person, as is Nolan. I’m sure Mal and Nolan will interact in a chess game again and as perhaps friends. I’m not sure at this point where their story together is going, but cess will be part of Mallory’s life again. For those who have played chess this story may be more interesting than to those who have not.
