Be willing to invest some money. Say little over 100Usd 2 or three opening books, a tactics workbook, and at least one endgame book. (I can highly recommend Silmans Endgame course book, it is prob the best endgame book I have ever read.)

Your unhelpful comment has been reported.

@Happy_Roman I favor Silmans Complete Endgame Course over Winning Endgames on its structure if for no other reason. It focuses the readers studies on what they should know at different Elo's.

Sure! Here are a few book recommendations for improving your understanding of chess, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Chess, My System and How to Reassess Your Chess. Do you know these writers are professionals and also we can hire writing experts like these from various sites, If you're looking for the best online essay writers, go to https://www.topwritersreview.com/reviews/ninjaessays/. You can search the top websites with NinjaEssays reviews to choose the best essay writer. Hopefully, you will find the best one, which could also share some chess books. And those above recommendations will also helpful in your chess journey!

I would probably agree with you on Silman. This is not my list, but one of a Twitter friend that has spent the last five or six years systematically studying chess and has read 30 or 40 books in his pursuit. He has been very forthcoming that quite a few of the books he read were not nearly as helpful as others. As a way of helping others who don't have the time or inclination to read that many chess books, he put together this list, saying if he had it to do all over again, these would be the first books in each category HE would read.

If one wants to study the Endgame, I would probably recommend starting with Pandolfini, followed by Silman and then Muller & Lamprecht's Fundamental Chess Endings. I have also heard good things about Amateur to IM by Jonathan Hawkins, but have not read it yet.

Everyone goes ga-ga over the Silman books, but you should not go for them right now considering your rating. Buying a book also depends on which area you want to improve and what's your budget. But studying master games is always good if you atleast know the tactics and are not a complete novice. A few books I recommend:-

a) The Master of Attack: Alexander Alekhine by Alexander Raetsky and Maxim Chetverik in the Everyman Chess books(you could also go with the Master of Invention: Rudolf Spielmann as both are written by the same authors, are of the same series, very low price and quality-wise amazing. Two more books in the same series, on Tal and Spassky, but they're expensive)

b) How to Play Chess Endings by Eugene Znosko-Borovsky in the Dover Books

c) The Art of Defence in Chess by Lev Polugaevsky and Iakov Damsky in the Cadogan Chess Books

Now if you have a high budget, go for Fischer's My 60 Memorable Games and Bronstein's book on Zurich 1953. Also there is Lasker's Manual of Chess and Edward Lasker's Chess Strategy. The Reinfeld and Chernev books are also great.

Hey fellow chess enthusiasts! If you're diving into the world of chess, here are my top book picks: "My System" by Nimzowitsch for strategy and "Silman's Complete Endgame Course" for endgame mastery. For online learning https://educhill.com/ and offer fantastic resources. Happy studying!

Honestly, Levy's (GothamChess) book is quite good.
