  1. Divyanshu Gautam

    The story was okay, but I feel like the middle really drug on. I’d recommend skipping around some to get to the parts that mattered.

  2. Unnati Pande

    I loved the blend of jazz and historical fiction! Danny’s journey was captivating, and the writing was beautiful. Highly recommend!

  3. Suraj Upadhyay

    A fascinating read, though the humor felt a bit forced at times. The characters were well-developed, and the plot kept me guessing. Overall, a worthwhile experience.

  4. Yashwant Suman

    Great read! the themes in the story were very apparent. It’s a story that has some strong resonance with what is currently going on.

  5. Saniya Sulthana

    The music was the heart of this book! It painted a scene that allowed me to feel the emotions of each character. Beautifully written and quite poignant.

  6. Shreyash Kashyap

    A powerful story about love and resistance! The author’s portrayal of post-war Czechoslovakia was vivid and immersive. A must-read!

  7. Kanishk Kumar

    A really interesting story. While the title made me expect a more action driven plot, it was a more mellow, character driven book.

  8. Samadrita Sen

    The political themes were strong, but I struggled to connect with the characters. The ending felt rushed. Still, the premise was unique and engaging.

  9. Thummalapalli Manoj

    Found the black comedy to be a bit too dark for my taste. The plot was convoluted at times, and I lost track of the characters. Disappointing.

  10. Harsh

    While the story was interesting, the pacing felt uneven. Some parts dragged on, while others were too quick. Worth a read, but with reservations.
