A review by bumblebee
The Queen's Gambit by Walter Tevis
3.0
This was an odd read for me. Having already seen the Netflix series, my expectation was to love the book even more (as I usually do). Oddly, I found the book added very little to the story I already knew, and I found myself wanting to rewatch the series rather than continue the book. That absolutely speaks to just how amazing the Netflix adaptation is. It's very faithful to the book, and where it made slight changes, it absolutely improved upon the story. I don't regret reading the book, as it was a fine read, but I am surprised to say I think the Netflix show with its impeccable production is my recommended way to experience this tale.
