Found it insightful but biased. The author clearly admires Mamata. Still, it’s a useful overview.

Not a bad book, but it lacks critical analysis. I wanted more depth and less hero-worship. Easy to understand.

I appreciate the book’s attempt to be balanced, but it sometimes felt too academic and dry. Still, informative overall.
