  1. Ayush Jain

    A good book that makes you think, but it is a bit dense. This would be for serious readers only. There are slow parts.

  2. Vishal Agarwal

    Found the ideas fascinating, but the writing style was a bit dry for my taste. Still, a thought-provoking read. Recommend.

  3. Avneesh Kaur

    Enjoyed the concept, but the execution felt a little clunky at times. Still, it is a worthwhile read for its historical significance.

  4. Baljeet Kaur Gurjeet Singh Chowdhari

    Erewhon was okay. I appreciated the social commentary, but the pacing was slow for me. The writing was good but not amazing.

  5. Anju

    I am on the fence with this book. The premise was interesting, but it didn’t fully deliver for me. I do not think it is a must read.

  6. Udit Gupta

    Erewhon is an interesting and weird book. I couldn’t put it down. It is a little slow in parts but overall a good read.

  7. Abhishek Rawat

    Erewhon is great! It is an incredibly funny satire and a great critique of society. Highly recommend for anyone interested in this genre.

  8. Kalpana Prasad

    Loved the satirical nature of the book but did find myself getting bored in some places. Still would recommend to classic novel readers.

  9. Khushi Agnihotri

    Loved the satire and the exploration of societal norms. A classic for a reason! Highly recommend for anyone interested in utopias.

  10. Naman Gulati

    Erewhon is a challenging but rewarding read. The author’s insights are still relevant today. Would recommend to others.

  11. Yash Garg

    What an odd and intriguing book! Some of the ideas are bizarre, but that’s what makes it so compelling. It is a great classic.

  12. Shubham Sangram Chavan

    Struggled to get into it at first, but the satire eventually won me over. A bit uneven, but ultimately rewarding. I liked it.

  13. Rixcel Katoch

    A unique book that makes you question everything. The author’s wit is sharp, though some ideas are dated. Still relevant today.

  14. Anas Ahmad

    Found the inverted morality fascinating! Some parts dragged, but overall a thought-provoking experience. Recommend for those who enjoy classics.

  15. Smitesh Sunil Gadge

    Erewhon is an interesting read. The satire is clever, but sometimes felt a bit heavy-handed. Worth exploring, but not my favorite.

  16. Sarvesh Singh

    I thought the book started strong but lost steam in the middle. The ending was a bit anticlimactic, but worth a read.

  17. Satabdi Das

    A bit of a mixed bag. Some really clever ideas, but other parts felt confusing and unnecessary. I am on the fence.
