The time of golden autumn has come. October is special. It is a real beauty when the world around us is preparing for winter rest. We also spend more time at home, wrapping ourselves in cosy blankets and picking up our favourite book.
I don't know about you, but books have always saved me from the autumn blues. It's so nice to sit in a warm room, immersed in an interesting story, drink a delicious hot drink and listen to the whisper of autumn outside the window.

A message came to me in the middle of night, informed me that a perfume brand would be holding a launch as well as a talk with Dee Lestari, author of Aroma Karsa. The entry was for free, could you imagined how thrilled I am? Without any doubt, I directly fill the form and boom, they've chosen me after one of the participants.

Seth Godin wrote *** The Dip. The extraordinary benefits of knowing when to quit (and when to stick)***. I definetely wanted to know why quitting can become a good strategy as it kind of demolishes the myth of "Quitters never win and winners never quit".

What do you do when you’re no longer the best in the room? When you’re used to your singular dexterity and exceptional skill in a particular field? You’re revered, you’re loved, you’re recognised. You’re comfortable in your position as the best and your skill becomes your safety. Your rank as number one becomes your safe space. You’re not necessarily proud. But you know that everyone knows you're the best. And somehow you have the feeling of invincibility. Till the rug is swept from under your feet.

I hope you are super well tonight was a day full of surprises, as you know I love books and I had a long time that I could not buy one because they are very expensive and I have had many expenses, so reading in PDF has been my salvation in the meantime, but because of problems with my eyesight reading in this format has hurt me a lot so I can not do it with the same frequency and time as I would do it in physical, this has had me a little sad and today my mom gave me a nice surprise of giving me these two amazing books that I already want to read to give you the reviews very soon, meanwhile I will give you a brief summary of what they are about before you start reading them, I hope you like them with all my heart

Hello dear friends of Hive and of this wonderful community of Hive Book Club, I hope you are well and that you have had an excellent day. On this beautiful night I want to share with you a book that I read recently and that I loved, as always when I read a new one of this wonderful novelist Nora Roberts. This time it is a story full of magic and love, it is the first book of the series The Donovans which consists of four books, this is the second time I read it and I still love it as much as the first time. A wonderful story that is about the Donovan family, three twin sisters who fell in love with three twin brothers as well and each of these couples had a child. This story focuses on them, the children of the Donovan witches and warlocks, Morgana, Sebastian and Anastasia Donovan.

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!
