❝ A room without books is like a body without souls.❞

. . . 🌹. . .

Querencia Awards is an ENORMOUS ocean of Book Awards that was the supposed to be the core motive of the account, when its true owner was still incharge of it. But with a big dream, comes a bigger strength, and thus we decided that Prism Pride Club will not only be congested of books, but other passions as well. 

Querencia, as the name suggests, means a place from which one's strength is drawn, where one feels at home. It is the place where you are your most authentic self. And while titling this book, both the founders were continuously diverting their minds into a world of books- or in reality, a library. The foremost reason for this was that we, the Team, believe that books are the best way to escape reality, without being entirely isolated from it. 

It's a place between two parallel worlds- You and Your Imagination, which ultimately curves into a beautiful book.

Conversely, you can also be a part of the reviewing pack and facilitate to review the books, if you adore exploring books. Both will be equally appreciated.

Unfortunately, even to escape reality, there are a few G U I D E L I N E S, H O W  I T  W O R K S and E X T E R N A L  F A C T S presented below, which are mandatory for you to read and follow.
