    Spark’s exploration of shame is fascinating. It opened my eyes to a different way of viewing social issues. Highly recommend for those seeking intellectual stimulation.

    A brilliant examination of shame’s potential for positive change. Some of Spark’s arguments are very compelling. I recommend.

  6. Akshit Goel

    Provocative and insightful! Spark masterfully dissects the complexities of shame. I did feel challenged with some concepts, but overall I enjoyed it

  7. Kushal Jaiswal

    I was hoping for more concrete examples. The book felt a bit theoretical and abstract. But it certainly made me think! Shame has never been perceived this way.

  8. Akarshita Shukla

    It’s a difficult book to get through, but it presents a strong argument, even if it’s not always convincing. However, I do respect her perspective.

  9. Arushi Chadha

    Spark presents an engaging and insightful exploration of shame in society. Some ideas were unexpected, but overall a good read.

  10. Deepankshi Mahendrakumar Dhamgaye

    A challenging read! Spark makes you question everything you thought you knew about shame. Not always a comfortable journey, but a worthwhile one. I am still digesting some parts.

  11. Deepesh Pandey

    I found the book repetitive in places, making it a bit of a slog. The core concept is fascinating, but execution could be better.

  12. Akshat Jain

    Interesting concept, but at times the writing felt a bit dense. I had to reread some passages. Overall, I appreciate the unique perspective on shame’s potential.
