We are again sharing with you today's finely curated post in the community for your reading pleasure, and possibly book recommendations. Some of the people featured here have also received tip from us!

Our first recommendation would be a post from Hive account@apunawu who shares his review on Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe which according to the author is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that tells the story of the collapse of the Igbo society in Nigeria. It's a tragic but also hopeful story that showcases the strength and resilience of the Igbo people, who continue to fight for their survival despite the terrible events they face. By reading this, it will allow you to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Igbo culture and people. Check out more below!

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.

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!
