We share again today a finely selected set of book reviews and similar sorts for your consumption. We hope you like the recommendations below!


Today, we highlight the works of @mayorganaiveth, @orion.art, @divergente1, and @jauregui98

Do you really believe that a woman, WOMAN, (and I leave it in capital letters) in the twentieth century in the context of the first and second world war would be full of prejudices? -I don't think so, since I have read more than one of her works, and I know that everything is within the context it should be. This is another subject that we can touch on later, of course, if you allow it, if you are interested and would like to.

Joan Anderson tells us how difficult it is her marriage to a man full of pain and resentment, because of an unfortunate childhood surrounded by alcoholic parents and being taken to a boarding school she did not want to attend. She tells us how her love is affected, as she is burdened with a pain that her husband found impossible to forget.

It was during my childhood that I had my first reading experience. I fondly remember the first book I read as a priceless treasure that I keep in a very special place in my heart.

The Wise Man's Fear was the first book that was recommended to me, even before The Name of the Wind, something very strange, because they even told me that I could read the second book before the first book and very little would change with respect to the story, and it still seems crazy to me that they told me that about a trilogy like this one, anyway, I'll tell you later why they recommended the second book first instead of the first, but taking into account this, not the recommendation, but that this is the second book, keep in mind that it is very likely that I will tell spoilers about what happens in the story, even if I do I will only mention it and not go into details, but still, few people like to read the slightest hint of spoiler.

What is Hive Book Club?

Hive Book Club is a community made by book lovers, for book lovers. A place where the chaotic minds of writers may punch away words from their keyboards as they share their writing adventures. Where passionate book collectors may rummage through their stacks of books to share and review their latest additions. Outside of our regular curation process, we may create contests for our community to participate in, and earn even more from their posts. If you have a certain theme for a future contest you would like to see, let us know! Be sure to check with us frequently on our various social media platforms to avoid missing out!

How Do We Choose The Highlighted Posts?

For those of you curious as to how you may have been chosen or would like to be chosen in the future in one of these compilations: we scan through the community and read the many posts that the community members write. We then select four or five posts that we believe meet certain criteria and are worthy of sharing with the rest of the community. We aim to keep these selections diverse in style, from writing skills or subject matter.

Hence, throughout the week, the moderators will check the community and manually handpick the posts. Some factors include the post subject, post quality, engagement, personal voice, and general effort. If we choose you, or you happen to stumble across these highlights, please do check out the other posts we feature, and contribute to their curation and engagement!
