This high fantasy author is not new to me—I'd read Throne of Glass and Crown Of Midnight, the first two books in her Throne Of Glass series a while back before I came on Hive. Those books are fantastic! I was going to continue the series when I read a blog that advised on the reading order of this woman's books. ACOTAR was recommended as the first series, followed by Crescent City and lastly, Throne Of Glass. I wish I knew this earlier but all is not lost.

This is one of the old book I have here in our House and this book contains different kinds of topics and stories about the past events happens here in the Country. Each place or Countries have many different kinds of stories and even our ancestors and elders knows about the great scenarios happens that time. History books told us about the past generations including the Traditions, Culture, even War between the Colonizers. For today's blog, I will share the reviews about this old book of mine titled, "KAYAMAN" it means that the information inside of this book is just like a Treasure because of an old events.

As you read Perfume: A Story of a Murderer, written by Patrick Suskind, you are confronted with many questions, thoughts, and scents. You smell the pages constantly, with the dash of hope that you might smell what the main character of the book, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille, is smelling. The smell of rocks, the smell of fear, the smell of love, all of this and more is on the olfactory journey Suskind takes us on. Around every corner, we are confronted with questions, thoughts, smells, and the constant and nagging feeling that something is not right. The subtitle of the book, A Story of a Murderer, is a dead giveaway, but for the majority of the book you are confronted with the sad life story of Grenouille, but not him as a murderer. Instead, how I felt while reading the book is that this is someone overwhelmed by their passion for a subject, driven to the edge of sanity, only to be consumed by what he loved. This is the narrative I want to maintain in the review of this classic book.

Welcome back to this new post, today I want to share with you about my latest read so far. I have already mentioned that I love to read, and when there is a book fair, even if I can't go, I want to go just to add a new book to the list. This time it's a hell of a lot more exciting, but I'll tell you why.
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.
