    The very interesting paper deals with nonlinear elliptic equations with measure data \[ \text{div}\,a(Du,u,x)=\mu\quad \text{in}\;\Omega, \] where the nonlinearity \(a(Du,u,x)\) is of \(p\)-Laplacian type with \(p\geq 2\) and \(\mu\) is a Borel measure with finite mass in \(\Omega.\) The author derives pointwise gradient estimates, VMO regularity and continuity of the gradient in terms of certain Riesz potential of the measure \(\mu.\) What is the particular feature of the paper in comparison with the existing literature is the dependendce of the nonlinear term also on the solution \(u\) itself which causes serious problems in applying the standard methods in deriving the mentioned gradient estimates. To overcome these difficulties, the author assumes Hölder continuity of \(a(Du,u,x)\) with respect to \(u\) and relies on reverse Hölder inequalities, normalization and stopping time arguments [\textit{T. Kuusi} and \textit{G. Mingione}, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 207, No. 1, 215--246 (2013; Zbl 1266.31011); Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 212, No. 3, 727--780 (2014; Zbl 1293.35332)] to get the desired results.
