  1. Yash Jayvant Borse

    A powerful and poignant story that will stay with you. Some plot elements are far-fetched for modern audiences.

  2. Vaibhav Chaturvedi

    Hardy’s masterpiece! Tess’s journey is unforgettable, and the themes of class and fate are still relevant today.

  3. Simran Keshri

    The descriptions are beautiful, but I didn’t connect with Tess as much as I hoped. Still, a worthwhile read.

  4. Akshit Sachdeva

    An emotional rollercoaster! Tess’s story is both heartbreaking and inspiring. Hardy’s writing is simply stunning.

  5. Prashant

    Hardy’s writing is superb. Tess’s story is a powerful indictment of Victorian society’s treatment of women.

  6. Somala Sri Harsha

    I found it quite slow to start, but once I got into it, I was hooked! A very moving story about a young woman wronged.

  7. Oisharya Chaudhuri

    Hardy’s prose is beautiful, but Tess’s fate felt predetermined and frustrating. A classic, but be prepared for a heavy read.

  8. Gautam Choudhary

    A powerful and moving story! Tess’s struggles resonated deeply, though some plot points felt a bit contrived. Overall, a great read.

  9. Ajeet Kumar

    Tess is such a sympathetic character. Although depressing, it really makes you think about social injustice.

  10. Anwarul Hasan

    Dark, depressing, but a true classic. The characters are well developed. I would describe it as a must read book.

  11. Kashish Javed

    A bit melodramatic at times, but overall a compelling story. Tess’s resilience is admirable.

  12. S Mizan Ahmed

    A beautifully written but deeply sad book. Be prepared for a somber and thought-provoking experience.

  13. Dave Rushi Bhaveshbhai

    Tess is a tragic figure, and Hardy portrays her with great empathy. Some parts were difficult to read due to the subject matter.

  14. Ishika Rammurti Pal

    I struggled with the length and some of the antiquated language, but the story is undeniably powerful.

  15. M Amez Khair

    While I appreciated the social commentary, I found some of the characters unlikeable. The writing is excellent, though.

  16. Om Prakash Bhardwaj

    A classic for a reason. The themes are timeless, but the pacing can be slow at times. Still worth the read.

  17. Tanu Chalotra

    I was captivated by Tess’s journey, but the ending left me feeling heartbroken. Hardy masterfully explores social injustice.
