Behind Smiling Eyes penned by the author Chani Louise is an interesting read. There are many short stories in this book.

Book: Lifestyle Manners to Drive Success

Author: Elthea Marden

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 5/5

Recently I have been socializing a lot. Therefore, I was reading blogs and books on manners. Luckily, I got my hands on the book “Lifestyle Manners to Drive Success”. You may be very intelligent and good at what you do but if you don’t have the right manners, then it could prevent you from being successful.

This book is an easy-to-read guide. Whether we are at a business meeting, business party, social event, family gathering, our manners are noticed everywhere. I like the author’s advice to make the effort to be warm and amenable. In the digital platforms chapter, the author has mentioned some off-putting gestures like coughing, yawning, scratching anywhere, etc. It’s very important for us to be aware of good manners.

I loved the section about the responsibilities of the visitor and the host. This is a well written book. I am glad to get my hands on it. This is an insightful and engaging read. I appreciate the knowledge that the author has shared in this book. I like to recommend this book to everyone. It’s a must read. Go for it.

Book: The Tenrux Society

Author: Kyile Jacquin Carter

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 4/5

The Tenrux Society penned by the author Kyile Jacquin Carter is a unique read.

This book introduces readers to the sci-fi story of the tenrux society from the past, present and the future tenses. Many times, we doubt ourselves and our choices but through this book, the author inspires the readers to not live in the doubt of their choices.

In life, we come across situations when we don’t know what decisions to make. We keep on wondering what direction to go in. Readers would get an understanding of self-belief within an anarchy.

This book is not for beginners. Before reading this book, I didn’t have a bit of an idea about the tenrux society. The language used in the book is lucid but the narration could have been smoother. Focus on the self-light, self-awareness as that is important.
