Empirical Odyssey story of an extraordinary girl. Beautiful and inspiring story of a girl. She shows her efforts, struggle in her life. She inspires us to face problems and win the hearts.The character of a girl in the novel is truly amazing for such a hardworking girl. The courage to get through it was incredible.
Please don’t judge anyone by his/her physical looks because their hard work and passions more important than physical attraction.
So I’ll highly recommended to everyone please convey the struggling story of a girl and all thanks to an author Nupur Dhingra because she shows the character of struggling girl in front of us.
Kuddos!!!

The story starts with a girl Tamanna, nervously, and at the same time excitedly waiting for an interview with Mr. Avinash a famous news editor from the times. While her entering the study holding her favorite book which was the last gift from her parents before they died in a car accident.
The story continues to her remembering the hostel days when on the last day of the 10th grade she was waiting for her parents as they had made plans to go to the Goa trip and later for the further studies she would be staying with her parents. But instead of her parents, the bad news arrived of their accident.
So the story continues with the Lucknow diaries, a place where she lived after her parent's death. It's over there where she reunited with her childhood best friend Shagun. And after meeting him she finally slept peacefully.
So the story continues from new school to normal days, from a childhood friend to something more, from emotional weakness to strength, from dread full life-changing event to emotional trauma, from weakness to finding strength, from finding faith to having courage, from bad days to good. The book continues to a beautiful and heart touching story.
My Take:
Empirical Odyssey is the debut novel written by Nupur Dhingra and it just full of life and emotions that will make you see the world differently and make you believe in life.
Starting from the beginning, the story is very emotional and exciting at the same time. I like the way the author Nupur Dhingra has written the story with ups and downs which made it fascinating to read and kept me hooked to the book till the end.
The author Nupur Dhingra has covered all the aspects of a book, from shock to sadness, from friendship to love, from crushed two teenage drama, from chills to horror, from having trauma to facing with courage, from self-doubt to having confidence. Every part of the book is written beautifully and will definitely make you feel every emotion as you read along.
The highlight of the Book is no doubt the storyline and the way it is written in a very addictive way. I say addictive an impressive because while reading I found myself crying as I read the book and then later I found myself blushing also I found myself related to the character, that the author Nupur Dhingra has described marvelously.
No doubt the story will take you on an emotional rollercoaster from happiness to sadness in just a moment and on the other hand from sadness to happiness.
I also liked the last chapter which is written as per Shagun's perspective which is a very unique, interesting, and equally emotional to read and a clever idea to express his side of the story in a quick way that I love to read.
The author has written the story in a very expressive way with easy to read in the English language. The Title of the book and cover is very catchy and beautiful. All the emotions are expressed amazingly and defiantly a must-read book.
Overall a book that will make you feel all the emotions in one day a short & engaging and truly inspiring story.

I do not know where to begin.
This has very apparently been translated from another language. If by the slim chance I am wrong about this, then this book is in need of even more work than I first suspected.
A full comprehensive edit is needed here, after a proper translation.
Grammatically this is very difficult to read as it 'trips' all over itself from start to finish. It is repetitive and confusing at best.
There is indeed a story to be told here, but trying to make sense of the words on these pages was indeed difficult and required so much re-reading simply to understand the connections from chapter to chapter.

Bravo! Such a story I had to read it, and not lay it down. The main girl in the story is hardworking, and wanting to not give up. Always have some form of a goal. I like that! There were so MANY emotions running through this book that I was like not being able to decide on what! This being a debut novel, good job!

Empirical Odyssey is an inspiring tale of love and hope, of fortitude and grit - a tale wherein pain, loss and misfortune rear their heads time and again but these are crushed by the protagonist's sheer determination. My heart goes out to Tammy, who bore the brunt of an evil mischance, but bounced back brimming with positivity. May the umbrella of true love shelter all those who yearn for it....

Tamanna is a happy and cheerful girl. She loses her parents when she was thirteen and her fufi takes care of her later. The story is about how she faces all the hurdles and how she meets the love of her life and how does she stand for herself. The story is so touching and pretty good. It is all plain sailing and very well narrated . We can finish reading it in a short period.

I really like the concept of this book. The storyline is amazing. I literally felt all types of emotions while reading this book. I felt like a 16 year old teenager when the character fell in love, I got angry when something bad happened, I got sad, I smiled, in short I was in an emotional rollercoaster while reading the book. Overall this book inspired me and made me feel strong. Storytelling and editing could have been better. But as a debut novel I must say the author did a great job.
Overall if you feel like reading something inspiring and romantic at the same time, then this book is for you

The author Nupur Dhingra has beautifully compiled the book with different Romantic Aromas. A love story that has touched my heart. I have been honestly glued to the story throughout the book, the amazing story line, the book cover and interior is really awesome to keep a reader excited to know more and read read till the end of the story. It almost covered all aspects of love, the teenage, friendship, happiness, sadness all these elements made the story more realistic and enjoying.
My favourite character from the Book is Tamanna, a teen girl who lost her parents in a car accident when she was just thirteen. This character from the book is really amazing and inspiring too.
Overall, I love the book and everything about it, and this is the book which I want to re-read because of the touching and relatable story. The Hard work of the Author and the fictional event and every single thing about the book is really appreciable. I wish author Nupur Dhingra a great success ahead in her writing carrier and definitely I'm excitedly waiting for her next book.

She was brave enough to overcome..... I felt like watched an bollywood movie.....it's really so amazing.....I suggest everyone should read this book.....

#INSIGHT: The novel 'Empirical Odyssey' is about a girl who keeps on facing whatever life throws her way be it her parents' death or the acid attack. The story is about how she deals with such problems of her life and who happens to be her support system.
#REVIEW: The novel is a great love story. The chemistry between the two protagonists reaches the hearts. The best part being the description of the school days.I really loved the attempt to bring such a sensitive topic of acid attack to everyone's attention. What I felt was that the story could have had better twists and turns. However, I see the potential in the writing of the author.
#STRENGTH: Whatever was written in the story was good. The characters of Shagun and Tamanna were explored properly. The title and the cover page of the book were attractive. The love story between the two protagonists has been portrayed really well.
#WEAKNESS: I felt that the plot and the story buildup could have been better. While the blurb and cover page talked about an acid attack victim, the story's more than 85% was about Tamanna and Shagun's love story. At one point, I even found a dialogue related to SMTP that was copied from the website. Moreover, the whole SMTP detail given in the novel did not contribute much.
#Factual error: The 15 month's training in Company Secretary course is done before the SMTP, and not after that.
#TARGET READERS: This book is for newbies.
#AGE GROUP: Anyone above 16 years of age
#GENRE: Romantic fiction
#RATING: 2.8/5

I have finished the book in one go. It's a romantic story with a message. The book is professionally edited. You can feel the pain of the center character.
I have read it after reading 2nd book of Nupur. I'm glad that someone is making an effort to bring out someone else pain. To give something to the reader that should stick with them and see the victims on which the story is based on different eyes.
I'm sure this story will inspire every reader to be more positive. I hope to read more such living and relatable stories from her.
