His prose hooked me in such a way that while I was reading, I filled in the gaps I had about don Mario in relation to his fame. Being one of the writers of the Latin American boom, having won the Nobel Prize for Literature, being a member of the Royal Spanish Academy and the first Spanish-speaking writer to enter the French Academy, apart from countless other merits, give him a place of honor in the world of literature; and, precisely, that triumphal aura that surrounds him, dazzles; But it is by reading him that one confirms that he is worth his weight; it is by getting to know his narrative, his mastery of language, his experiences as an inventor of realities, his power of persuasion with words; it is when we delve into his craft as a writer and balance what they say, from what he is, that is when we are left with our own opinion, and in particular, Mario Vargas Llosa is a gentleman of letters.

I have this liking for Shakespeare's works even though the words are primeval and require a good amount of wit to grasp. Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's plays that reflects several characteristics of the Elizabethan and society in terms of subject matter, thematic preoccupation and characterisation.
The play is set in Scotland and the first character the reader encounters are largely responsible for the tragic events that culminate the tragedy that the play explores.

that same period of time, my tutor notified me that we would be publishing the work in the journal of the university where I studied: UCLA. I was amazed by the news, and my classmates also approved of it. We all officially thought that the article would be published in the year 2024, followed by the complete degree work. Something sequential, to be specific. However, the research coordination notified us in the middle of November that they wanted to publish two articles on our research (one in December 2023 and one in the middle of the year 2024). At first, I was a little hesitant due to the short time I had to make all the corrections and adapt to all the requirements, but in the end, my colleagues and I decided that we should take advantage of the publication of the two articles.

I started with the one by Mark Manson and I can tell already that it is an amazing book and I’ll definitely have a mind shift by the time I am done with it. The first chapter talked about how caring too much about everything—in his case, ‘how giving too many f*cks about everything’, can make one’s life miserable. That it’s quite important to know what to care about and what not to care about. It talked about different other things—deeper, crazier things. The book is like an actual wake up call.

I wish I could talk about the last book I read, but the truth is that I haven't read for a long time, I always think about wanting to do it, but I haven't been motivated, I get distracted by other things, the day goes by, time passes, and nothing, I even joined a book club through Telegram.However, what I have liked most in recent months, is to create, design a little, and although it is not something I do consistently, from time to time, I get to see what I get, that's why, when I saw this publication, to create a new image to this community, I said why not, I'll try, and so, maybe I encourage me a little to resume reading.It was a long process, I did not know where to start, I wanted to play a little with the initials of the community HBC, after so much testing, I decided to make this gradient effect with one of the proposed colors, the Saffron, the fonts, well, I based mostly on that type of modern and simple letters.Once this was done, I did not know how to place it, I thought many ideas regarding the shape of the book, between open or closed, but in the end I took this one, closed, placing the letters as the cover of the book, with some astethic decorative lines, combined with another color, the Classic Blue.

One day, a tiny pocket title itched my legs to go see 'the end of the world' with my own eyes. Armed of a backpack and some essentials, I embarked on a crazy hitchhiking mission to reach Tierra del Fuego. The trip marked a point of no return. Other foolish adventures followed. This blog was born. And never again my butt touched a desk job (to my parent's frustration). Following the engineering career would probably lead to a more successful neo-me, although the experience of exploring the world as a free bird is not packed in a 30-day vacation program. I never found the love of my life at the end of my trip (or trips) like Amyr did after his. Is that a good excuse to keep on traveling?

Autumn brings with it the fall of the leaves, just like books allow us to leave behind the burdens of reality and immerse ourselves in new adventures, its various colors are like the shades of our imagination and we can renew our energies just like the leaves of the trees.Autumn is my favorite season, I like its colors and how beautifully it decorates the streets of the cities, being able to unite this season and books is undoubtedly my intention for this great community. Besides the color palette that has indicated the community moves in the shades of autumn, so I can not miss the opportunity to inspire me.
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!
Hive Book Club is supported in the OCD Community Incubation Program. If you like what they do for the community, OCD Has a Hive Witness ... @OCD-Witness! You can vote for @ocd-witness, with Hive Witnesses.
