/lit/ any good books on chess you can recommend? Just started playing and am looking to develop better tactics etc.
>>>/tg/
>/lit/ is for the discussion of literature, specifically books (fiction & non-fiction), short stories, poetry, creative writing, etc.
The classic beginner chess book (after you've learned the moves and very basic strategies) is Logical Chess: Move by Move by Irving Chernev. Made me a few hundred points better.
The Luneburg Variation was quite good.
read up on openings and variations
pick one you like and stick to that
