How Do We Choose The Highlighted Posts?

All of you must be wondering how we picked the authors who get into the highlight. As some of the good curation projects out there, our highlighted authors are also handpicked to ensure that we diversify the content and the recommendations in the highlight. We want this highlight to be a place where people get inspiration, a place to learn something new, and even finding a recommendation.

Hence, throughout the week, the moderators will check the community and manually hand pick the posts. Some factors includes : the post subject, post quality, engagement, personal voice, and general effort.

Here are five highlighted entries and posts from HivebookClub this week in no particular order:

AuthorTitleDescription
@risckylu[ENG/SPN[ Recorriendo la Tierra Media - Amo del destino la historia de Túrin Turambar capitulo I Master of Destiny the story of Túrin Turambar Cap I''I really wanted to talk about this story, about one of the most important characters of Tolkien's universe and the Lord of the Rings lore, this story is part of one of the saddest ballads I have ever read and surely one of the most tragic of all the stories in the Lost Tales of Middle-earth.''
@jcrodriguezThe 48 Laws of Power / BOOK REVIEW''I am a person who reads few books in the self-help genre. It has never been my favorite genre and I have always questioned the effectiveness of many of the titles found in bookstores. But there are two books that fall into that genre that have been helpful to my personal and professional growth. Today I will tell you about one of them: The 48 Laws of Power.''
@wendyth16My 3 favorite books// (Esp/ Eng)''Books are interesting in my life because with them I learn a lot, plus they leave a deep impression on me. I love to read books on personal growth, romance and self-help topics, although I have many favorite books, but lately I read that can serve me or help me to complete certain processes, many of which are stories that surround me.''
@mariart1Bellas durmientes - Reseña / Sleeping Beautis - Review ''A strange disease is beginning to appear in different parts of the world, but Dooling is the place where it all seems to have started, a small town in the Three Counties. Nothing is known about this disease except the facts: it affects only women, who, after falling into a deep sleep, are wrapped in cocoons. But woe betide anyone who tries to remove this substance!:''
@ricardo993Reasons why I detest Interview with the vampire - Review EN/ES''I'm sure, and I hope to be sure, that with this article I will create a wave of critics and also people who will dive in to read Interview with the Vampire, that's how marketing is in things. But that's not my primary remit. I haven't even read the entirety of the Vampire Chronicles saga. If I found the first book very boring and obnoxious, the others would be worse.''

Top picks.

@jcrodriguez review was quite enjoyable to read. I would have to look at the other authors.

Also, I'd like to tender my application for the moderator post. That'd spur me to read my post for the community or sure :).

  • I would be able to conjure up various ideas to improve community engagement.
  • I do enjoy reading books, ;)
  • I like to think of my self as well read, but I do have diverse interest.
  • I definitely would look at the program hackmd
  • I commit to wherever there's books.
  • At the moment, i've got all the time in the world.

🙂

Thanks for the mention guys !
