The play introduces us to a new group of supernatural beings known as "The True Knot". These beings feed on the glow of children with psychic powers and are willing to do anything to get it - seriously, anything. Their leader, Rose the Hi Hat, is a ruthless, power-hungry woman who will go to any lengths to hunt down co-star Abra, and other children with the gift.

It is said that this book is one of the most read in the world, and I don't know if anyone here is following me in my posts, but if you have, you may have been able to notice that my readings are based on those books that are part of the most read, of course I have my own list and from time to time I take the time to read one or another book that is different from my list, since most of these books tend to be somewhat wide and long enough to end up in a short time as a busy person with little hours available in the day.

How Many Miles to Babylon Explores themes of Imagination, fantasy, exploration, boyhood and memory, expertly crafted by the talented author, Paula Fox. The book revolves around James, a ten-year-old boy who has a wide range of imagination. He lives in the fantasy that he is a wealthy African prince in hiding guarded by his three aunts. While his mother is in Africa paving the way for him, and telling people about how great of a prince he is, so that other prices can one day come out in their shining robes and live like princes, again. In reality, James is a ten-year-old boy whose mother has been bedridden for years and whose father left without a trace. He lives with his three great aunts.

In my opinion, this book is excellent, as it shows us the realities of life and how love does not always conform to the romantic ideal that many of us imagine. But the best thing is that it shows us that love is immune to the passage of time, and that it is possible to fall in love at any age.
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.
