Have you tried the woodpecker method? I wondered if it’s any good as it was recommended to me. Grateful for your thoughts if you have. Anna

Hi Saikat,

I have to say I didn’t go through Susan’s book, but judging by your comment, it is well worth a look. I liked the definition of ‘simple’ – I think it was spot on 🙂

Cheers

When I say ‘simple’, I don’t mean that the book is easy to work through. I mean that the structure is easy to understand and very educational.

The various tactical ideas are organised into chapters and each chapter has around 50 problems. I think it is very important to highlight ideas with a small number of problems and not overwhelm the reader. I would really love for this book to be available on Chessable so I can learn it better.

Hey Marius,
Thanks for the comment, I have heard about it but haven’t had the opportunity to go through it yet, now it is on my kindle 🙂
