I’m so impressed with how well Ali Hazelwood’s writing translated to the YA genre. Check & Mate wastes no time getting into the story. I love the dynamic between Mallory and her sisters. She has the classic older sister vibes. She had great character development from the sister who has to do everything to the sister who lets people help her.
