G is for Game Pieces


#AtoZChallenge 2026 letter G


A book-cover scavenger hunt is this year's theme. Please see this post for general rules on how to participate. 


Today's item:

Game Pieces

My choice:

Breaking Dawn--Stephenie Meyer



It was hard to find an item for this letter. But when I remembered the chess piece on the cover of this one, I chose game pieces. And this is one everyone is familiar with. Any sort of game piece is acceptable.

Now it's your turn. Provide a link in the comments (from Amazon, Goodreads or other sites) to a book with the item of the day. Just naming the book in the comments is also acceptable. Remember, you cannot use the same one in my post. Otherwise, just comment on the post. Good Luck!

  2. I did recently saw a cover with chess pieces but now I forgot the title. Although seeing this reminded me of Harry Potter when he had to play chess with giant chess pieces that moves.

    Have a lovely day.

  3. I mean, there have to be a bunch with this. I found a club, which is sort of a game piece as it's part of a playing card... Okay, so it's more of a squint in this direction and it sort of/kind of gets there? Anyway, The Grandest Game: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/197392670-the-grandest-game

  4. This one was easy as a friend wrote an entire series called "The Pawn Stratagem" - the first book of the series was "Pawn's Gambit" by Darin Kennedy - available on Amazon in Kindle, paperback, hard cover and audio book. It isn't his BEST series - that is Fugue and Fable - and you MUSIC as the scavenger hunt, this is where I would send you, starting with The Mussorgsky Riddle, but the Pawn Stratagem isn't bad.

  5. In Danish, but I hope it counts. The title "En dødssyg ven" has the dual meanings of a mortally ill friend and a really boring friend.
