Hello dear Hive community, I hope you are doing well. Today I want to talk to you about something that really makes me sad and that is abandoning books...this year I am proud because practically everything I have started to read I have finished and the ones I have not done it is for one reason or another and here I will tell you which ones. One of the great writers of science fiction they say out there and I do not doubt it, I have not had the opportunity to read his books but I know they are very famous, he has given courses which are summarized in this book, like all readers I feel that we reach the point of wanting to create stories like the one you read to convey some message...actually I have been a long time studying, watching guides and tips from writers to start writing. This book I left it half way through because at that point of the year I was stubborn because I was always looking to instruct myself but not to do the important thing that was to write so I left the book halfway and started with the action, but that does not mean that I will take it up again since I have put into practice some of his advice, but in fact I left it because I felt very overwhelmed with my self-sabotage.

Murakami's approach to delving into his characters' thoughts and emotions is unique. Consider the main character Toru Watanabe; he is more than simply a name on a page; he is a friend enduring life's emotional ups and downs. It seems as though you are leafing through the pages of a very personal journal as you read about his highs and lows.Oh, how nostalgic! You feel the comfort of memories you never knew you had when you read Murakami's words. Wintertime in Tokyo, the aroma of cedar trees, and the eerie Beatles song "Norwegian Wood" Time seems to be moving in slow, beautiful circles in this other planet.

Hello beautiful community of lovers of good books. Today I wanted to dedicate a little time to review a book that in my humble opinion I would classify as masterful. It's a book that I read a while ago and although I don't usually get hooked on any story quickly, this one turned out to be for me, one of those that I would read many times and that would leave its mark on my literary memories forever. It is a beautiful and brilliant narrative referring to the writer's life story. So prepare yourself a delicious coffee and sit down to enjoy it, while reading this post that I am sure you will like.

It narrates both faces of the Ortiz people, the lively Ortiz, full of life, full of celebration, and he tells the memories of its oldest inhabitants; and the Ortiz more moribund in the shoes of Carmen Rosa (who is the protagonist), from this form, its present as the memories are interspersed, exposing the fall of the people. If you want to read something new I suggest Delito y castigo.

“Zita, do you want to read this? The story is madly interesting; you might get addicted!” She asked me
It had been ages since I’d read a novel, especially one that size. “Sure, it’s not like I have any textbook to read; we just graduated 😅” I agreed and grabbed the book from her outstretched arm.For the next three days, I was pretty much useless in real life, as I was violently sucked into the romantic vortex of Grace Moore and Roman Velasco. I couldn’t recall the last time a book gripped my attention like that. I cried multiple times and laughed even more.
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.
