help please


Hello little one! Chess is really complicated and there is a lot of great books to read.
But first, you need to know what do you exactly need. You want overall knowledge about chess? Or you already have some overall knowledge and want to get more detailed about some part of chess?
Because there are many books focused on different things like:
- - Books for beginners, intermediate and advanced players.
- - Books that focus on tournaments
- - Books focusing on Openings
- - Books focusing on Middle games
- - Books focusing on End games
And and more.
I learnt overall knowledge about chess by watching videos from top professional players and from interactive lessons by chess.com.
And about best books I had read before (for beginners) is:
- "Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess" by Bobby Fischer, the most talented chess player in history
- "The Complete Chess Course" by Fred Reinfeld, one of the strong chess master in America back in 1930s.
I am still beginner but I am glad to see someone getting interrested into chess and want to learn something about chess!
I am praying good luck for you and enjoy your journey in chess world!
Here's a blog with some of my general advice in it:

Just out of curiosity, are you aware that Bobby Fischer, your so-called "most talented chess player in history" had absolutely nothing to do with the book you are recommending? He didnt write it. He didnt contribute to it. He didnt edit it. He didnt review it. In all probability he never even picked it upto peruse it. The only involvement he had was putting his name on it for a fee.

Logical chess move by move is a good book. It's a collection of 30 games, and every single move is annotated. You will need to know how to read notation though, but it's pretty easy to learn. I have read them but I have also heard that Bobby Fischer teaches chess and the soviet primer are good books to start with too.

No way really? If that's so, I am sorry for missinsformations that I spoke to clueless people about these books.
