8 reviews for A Long Way Down

  1. Sanchita Agarwal

    The premise is intriguing, but the execution felt a little clunky. Some parts dragged, while others were incredibly poignant. Overall, an okay read, but not my favorite Hornby.

  2. Manan Goyal

    A bit uneven, but ultimately a worthwhile read. Hornby tackles a tough subject with humor, though it sometimes feels a little forced. The characters are well-developed. I would still recommend it.

  3. Maryam Mushtaq

    I laughed, I cried, I questioned my existence. Hornby at his finest! A truly moving story about finding hope in the darkest of places. Very thought provoking and emotional.

  4. Sanvi Saxena

    A powerful and surprisingly funny book about a serious topic. The characters are all flawed and relatable. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys dark comedies.

  5. Chirag S

    Not sure if it’s for everyone, but I really enjoyed it. The humor helps to lighten a difficult topic.

  6. Priyal Jain Jain

    An amazing book! Captivating from beginning to end. It is an emotional roller coaster.

  7. Sujeet Kumar

    Darkly funny and surprisingly heartwarming. Hornby explores the complexities of human connection with wit and compassion. A very unique book.

  8. Sneha Kumari

    I had mixed feelings about this book. While the writing is good, I struggled to connect with all of the characters. A decent read, but not a must-read for me.
