  2. Niyansh Bindal

    Interesting subject matter, but the author could have made it more accessible. It felt a bit academic.

  3. Palak Shukla

    An outstanding work of historical fiction. It is beautifully written and a wonderful read.

  4. Khushu

    While informative, the book lacked emotional depth. I didn’t connect with the characters as much as I hoped.

    The book was hard to get into at first, the details are overwhelming but once you do, it’s great.

  6. Anmol Jha

    A fascinating glimpse into a forgotten chapter of history. The love story is compelling, but the writing felt a bit dense at times.

    I enjoyed learning about this historical period, though the romance felt somewhat idealized. Worth a read.

    A captivating read! The author brilliantly recreates the atmosphere of the time. I couldn’t put it down.

    Dense and complex, this isn’t a light read. But if you’re patient, it’s very rewarding.

    I found it difficult to follow all the political machinations. The love story was the most engaging part.

    Fascinating book, but the writing style was a bit dry. However, the story made up for it.
