    Found it a bit slow at times, but the ending was satisfying. The characters are memorable, even if the world is relentlessly bleak.

  2. Kiran Sudhakar More

    I loved the humor and the philosophical debates. Candide is a timeless tale that still resonates today.

  3. Mohit Shukla

    I appreciated the wit and the philosophical depth. Candide is a book that stays with you long after you finish reading it.

  4. Mahima Singh

    An entertaining and thought-provoking read. Candide’s journey is full of surprises and philosophical insights.

  5. Arya Kalia

    A quick, witty read. Voltaire’s satire is sharp, but the constant misfortune felt a bit repetitive after a while. Still thought-provoking.

  6. Vivek Kumar

    Classic literature done right! Voltaire’s Candide is a must-read for anyone who appreciates satire and philosophical thought.

  7. Ashutosh Singh

    Candide is a classic for a reason. The humor is timeless, though the optimism can be hard to swallow in today’s world.

  8. Abhishek Chaudhary

    A bit repetitive and predictable, but still a worthwhile read. Candide’s journey is a reminder to question everything.

  9. Rupal Berry

    It’s okay. Expected more from this ‘classic’. Writing style felt kinda old, but philosophical aspects were interesting.

  10. Sameer Ali M

    I enjoyed the philosophical elements, but the plot felt a little disjointed. Some parts were truly brilliant, others less so.

  11. Gauri Ghosal

    Found it depressing, to be honest. Too much bad stuff happens to Candide. Though I guess that was the point. Not for me.

  12. Aniruddha Khohwal

    It was okay. Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it. The story was interesting, but the writing style wasn’t my favorite.

  13. Aniket Pandey

    A brilliant satire that challenges conventional thinking. Candide is a complex and fascinating character.

  14. Shreeniket Ashok Hinge

    The satire is brilliant, but I struggled with the constant negativity. A bit too cynical for my taste, but well-written.

  15. Tamanna Singhal

    A true classic! Voltaire’s writing is sharp, funny, and insightful. Candide’s adventures are both hilarious and heartbreaking.

  16. Om Kandpal

    Darkly funny and thought-provoking. Candide is a challenging but rewarding read.

  17. Sakshi Yogendra Kasat

    I really loved it! Voltaire writing is very amazing. I will read it again. Its journey is very funny. It has philosophical insights.

  18. Disha

    Voltaire’s wit shines through in this satirical masterpiece. A must-read for anyone interested in philosophy and social commentary.

  19. Nandini

    Enjoyable, but a bit preachy at times. The message is important, but it felt a little heavy-handed in places. Still a good read.
