  1. Anushka Chaudhary

    I found the story a bit slow-paced and lacking in suspense. Mata Hari’s life was fascinating, but this didn’t fully capture it. Okay read.

  2. Sahil Sharma

    The book provides an interesting perspective on a controversial figure. However, I wished for more historical accuracy, it felt dramatized.

  3. Aakanksha Singh

    Coelho’s ‘The Spy’ offers a glimpse into Mata Hari’s life, though it could have explored her motivations more deeply. A bittersweet and tragic tale.

  4. Chetna Joshi

    A powerful and moving account of a woman who defied expectations. Coelho’s writing is captivating, and the story is unforgettable. Loved it.

  5. Yash Dabee

    Beautifully written, but I expected more intrigue. The book focuses on Mata Hari’s perspective, which is interesting but limits the suspense. Worth reading.

  6. Akanksh Anand

    The writing is beautiful, but the story felt incomplete. I wanted more details about her life and her alleged espionage. Good, but not great.

  7. Ankit Kumar Gupta

    Coelho does a wonderful job of humanizing Mata Hari. A compelling narrative that challenges our perceptions. Highly recommended and a must-read.

  8. Harshad Bromania

    A fascinating and tragic account of a woman’s life. The writing is evocative, and the story stayed with me long after I finished it. Loved it.

  9. Rajat Choubey

    I was captivated by Mata Hari’s story. Coelho brings her to life, but the ending felt rushed. Overall, a good read for fans of historical fiction.

  10. Vilas Tyagi

    A quick read, but I felt it lacked depth. Mata Hari’s story is fascinating, but this felt surface level. Still, Coelho’s writing is always engaging. A decent historical fiction.

  11. Shekhar Sharma

    A compelling read that sheds light on a complex historical figure. The Spy explores themes of betrayal, identity, and sacrifice. Loved reading it.

  12. Arush Dutt

    Coelho’s interpretation of Mata Hari’s life is both sympathetic and thought-provoking. A worthwhile read for those interested in history.

  13. Chhavi Poddar

    A good introduction to Mata Hari’s story, but it could have been more in-depth. Easy to read and thought-provoking. Recommend this book.

  14. Anup Mangwani

    The book is an interesting read, but I think the climax felt a bit rushed.

  15. Nikita Rajak

    A moving story of a woman caught in extraordinary circumstances. I was engrossed from beginning to end. A must-read for historical fiction lovers.

  16. Samarth Bhardwaj

    I struggled to connect with Mata Hari in this portrayal. The story felt somewhat detached and unemotional. Disappointed given the hype.

  17. Hemant

    While interesting, the book felt too short to fully develop Mata Hari’s character. I wish it had been longer and more detailed.

  18. Bharat Singhal

    A poignant portrayal of a misunderstood woman. Coelho masterfully captures Mata Hari’s inner turmoil. I enjoyed it immensely. Highly recommended!

  19. Raveesh

    I found the writing style a bit simplistic for such a complex character. Mata Hari’s story deserved more nuance. It was okay.

  20. Suzal Raj

    The book is a moving portrait of a woman who lived a remarkable life. The writing is beautiful and evocative. I absolutely loved it.

  21. Prasaanth S

    Coelho’s writing is beautiful as always. This story is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war. I truly felt for Mata Hari.

  22. Vedika Chaudhary

    While an intriguing premise, the execution felt lacking. The prose was simple, and the emotions never fully resonated. Underwhelming book.

  23. Daksh Bhardwaj

    Good effort to tell mata hari story. The short length did not do justice to her amazing life.
