  1. Mayank Roy

    The premise was interesting, but the book didn’t fully deliver. The writing felt amateur at times.

  2. Keshav Gupta

    Decent read. The topic is important. But the narrative jumps around a bit, making it hard to follow at times.

  3. Rajdeep Saha

    It’s an okay read, but not what I was expecting. I thought it would be more informative about the riots themselves.

  4. Vasu Aggarwal

    A heartbreaking story of courage. The writing was good, although I found the ending slightly unsatisfying. Worth reading.

  5. Soumya Saini

    A powerful story of survival. The characters were well-developed, and the plot kept me engaged. Some parts felt a little rushed, though.

  6. Aashish Shrivastava

    It’s a heartbreaking and poignant read. The descriptions are sometimes too graphic, but it serves the story’s purpose.

  7. Sahil Kumar

    An important story told with sensitivity. The author did a good job portraying the girls’ fear and determination. I enjoyed it.

  8. Vikas Chhapola

    I had mixed feelings about this book. While the plot was interesting, the writing style was a bit simplistic. It’s an okay read.

  9. Sandhya Ravi

    This book stays with you long after you finish it. The events are depicted in a heart wrenching way! Highly recommended.

  10. Vaibhav Singh

    A well-written book that shines a light on a dark part of history. The characters and story were compelling.

  11. Pal Rajendrakumar Pandya

    Battle for No. is an emotional rollercoaster. I loved the strong female characters. However, the plot needed more fleshing out.

  12. Uday Teja Gudaparthi

    The characters felt real, and I was invested in their survival. The ending felt a little abrupt, leaving me wanting more.

  13. Dharam Vanita

    An engaging story that kept me hooked. However, some of the dialogue felt unnatural. Overall, a good effort.

  14. Aishwarya Singh

    Gripping and thought-provoking! The book highlights important issues but could have explored the historical context more deeply.

  15. Anwarul Hasan

    An emotional read about a dark period. I appreciated the author’s focus on the girls’ resilience. A bit too descriptive at times.

  16. Aakanksha Sharma

    An okay book. It had potential, but it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. A bit slow-paced for my taste.

  17. Preet Singh

    A compelling story of survival against all odds. The book is thought-provoking and emotionally charged.

  18. Mohit Bansal

    The book really tugs at your heartstrings. The young girls’ bravery is admirable, but the violence was difficult to read.

  19. Rimjhim Nigam

    A decent read. The premise was strong, but the execution faltered in places. The characters were somewhat believable.

  20. Nikhil Gupta

    A very powerful story. It’s an emotional read, but worth it. The book captures the trauma very well. Highly recommend.
