    This is a book that stays with you long after you finish reading it. It’s insightful, thought-provoking, and beautifully written.

    Jain’s essay offers a fresh perspective on age-old questions. It’s a quick read but leaves a lasting impression. Recommended.

  5. Matsa Sai Sureshkumar

    I found some of the concepts a bit abstract and hard to relate to. It might not be for everyone.

  6. Muskan Gulyani

    Interesting concepts, but sometimes the writing felt a bit dense. Needed to reread some sections to fully grasp the ideas.

  7. Nitika Nagar

    This essay is beautifully written and thought-provoking. It really made me question my choices. Highly recommend!

  8. Abhinav Singh Chouhan

    While the topic is compelling, the execution was a little dry. I was hoping for a more engaging narrative.

  9. Ashima Bhardwaj

    This book stays with me long after I completed it. It has thought provoking writing. This is really insightful.

  10. Pragya

    A decent essay. It had some good points, but it didn’t completely blow me away. It’s a solid read for philosophy enthusiasts.

  11. Ayush Gupta

    A short but impactful read! Jain makes you really think about your place in the world. Some parts felt a bit repetitive, though.

  12. Rugved Deepak Tidke

    It was ok. I think it was a little boring. I didn’t understand some of the book. But overall, It was fine.

  13. Anchal

    I was expecting more clear solutions. It is only talking about exploration of idea. It is fine, but not for me.

  14. Suraj Upadhyay

    I enjoyed the exploration of societal pressures, but the ‘great longing’ aspect felt underdeveloped. Still, a worthwhile read!

  15. Piyush Sonthalia

    Excellent book! I really enjoy reading it and I would recommend to people who like philosophy.

  16. Nihar Deswal

    I loved how this essay explored the tension between individual desires and social expectations. Very insightful and well-written.

  17. Himanshu Choudhary

    This book is profound. It really made me think about my own desires and how society influences them. Excellent!

  18. Aman Verma

    I was expecting more practical advice or solutions. It’s more of a philosophical exploration, which is fine, but not what I wanted.

  19. Bhairab Borah

    Not bad, I appreciate author point of view. I think author could explain more clearly about great longing aspect.
