  1. Venu Gopal

    An unconventional love story that explores the complexities of relationships and personal freedom.

  2. Nooli Siri

    Baltasar’s prose is stunning. ‘Boulder’ is a powerful exploration of female desire and the constraints of societal expectations.

  3. Nirupama Banerjee

    I wanted to love this more than I did. The writing was beautiful, but the story dragged in places.

  4. Parvez Khalek

    I was intrigued by the premise, but the execution felt a bit disjointed. Still worth a read.

  5. Anushka Bhartiya

    Found the characters unlikeable and the plot confusing. Did not really connect with the story.

  6. Aryan Singh Chauhan

    A beautifully written story, but I struggled to connect with the characters. The ending left me feeling a bit empty.

  7. Prasanta Basak

    Baltasar’s writing is captivating! A must-read for those who enjoy character-driven narratives.

  8. Thejus Chandran C

    Not my usual genre, but I was pleasantly surprised. The themes were heavy, but the book was ultimately rewarding.

  9. Saumya Darshan

    A moving and intimate portrayal of a relationship facing difficult choices. Highly recommend!

  10. Harsha Nimmakayala

    I loved the unique writing style. Samsa and Boulder’s relationship was complex and fascinating, even when frustrating.

  11. Ishant Pawar

    The descriptions of Iceland are breathtaking! The story itself was a bit meandering and lacked a strong central conflict.

  12. Mohit Kumar Swami

    A short, but impactful read. ‘Boulder’ is a memorable exploration of identity and belonging.

  13. Aayush Gupta

    I enjoyed the exploration of queer love and the unconventional family dynamic. A bit too philosophical for my taste though.

  14. Sumit Bahuguna

    The exploration of desire was interesting, but I felt disconnected from the main character. Good, not great.

  15. Harikrishnan P

    A unique and thought-provoking novel. It made me question my own views on motherhood and relationships.

  16. Aman Kumawat

    This book is poetic and raw. It challenges conventional ideas about love and family.

  17. Divij Gupta

    This book stayed with me long after I finished reading it. Deeply moving and beautifully written.

  18. Dhruv Bansal

    Interesting read! The Iceland setting was beautiful, but the plot felt a bit slow at times. Overall, a thought-provoking exploration of motherhood.

  19. Suzal Raj

    I loved the raw emotion and honesty in this book. A beautiful, unforgettable story.
