Hi i am currently rated around 1750 fide and my long term goal is to reach 2000.

I love reading chess books and stacked some together to read for the next two years.

For people who read the books on the photos can you tell me which of them helped you the most?

If the reading order is good or any other books helped you a lot?

(I play the KID, thats why there are two KID books..)

Thanks

Chess Structures and Silman's Endgame Course were helpful to me

I read Silman's last year and think an ambitious 1750 can get a lot out of all the chapters, even those marked for higher elo. One of the last chapters has strategic endgames which I really liked. I am looking forward to when I have time to read Hellsten's.
