  1. Sankar Kumar M

    I was completely captivated by Saleem’s story. Rushdie’s prose is lyrical and evocative. I can see myself rereading it.

  2. Rajat Kumar Singh

    Interesting concept, but I struggled with the pacing. Too many tangents. It was a slow burn to finish this book!

  3. Bhavana Dubey

    Couldn’t quite connect with the characters, and the plot felt disjointed. I appreciate the ambition, but it wasn’t for me.

  4. Saumya Srivastava

    A bit slow-paced for my taste, but I appreciated the rich cultural details. Worth a read if you’re patient.

  5. Shubhayu Saha

    An epic tale of India’s birth and growing pains. Rushdie’s prose is both beautiful and challenging. This book is fantastic

  6. Harshal Vasudeo More

    While I admired the scope of the novel, it felt a bit too ambitious. Still, a worthwhile read for those interested in Indian history.

  7. Aakash Sharma

    A challenging but rewarding read. Rushdie’s prose is captivating. The historical context is fascinating, a great book!

  8. Swastik Kumar Ray

    I appreciated the historical context, but the magical realism felt a bit forced. Overall, an okay read. Not my favorite.

    Rushdie’s imagination knows no bounds. *Midnight’s Children* is a truly original and unforgettable book. I enjoyed it.

    I loved the concept, but the execution felt a bit long-winded. Still, a very imaginative and thought-provoking book. I still enjoyed it.

  12. Khanak Bajpai

    Rushdie’s writing is stunning, but the sheer volume of characters was overwhelming. A brilliant but dense read. Mixed feelings overall.

  13. Gautam Garg

    I found it hard to follow at times. Too many characters and events crammed into one story, but I liked the writing style

  14. Ravi Kumar

    A beautiful and complex exploration of identity and history. *Midnight’s Children* is a true literary masterpiece.

  15. Shreya N

    A stunning achievement! Rushdie weaves together history, mythology, and magical realism seamlessly. One of the best!

  16. Sumit Kumar Jayant

    Found it dense and hard to get into. Maybe I’ll try again later. The writing style was good but not for me right now

  17. Ashtha

    Magical realism at its finest! *Midnight’s Children* is a wild ride through India’s history. Some parts were confusing, but worth the effort.
