I entered in the County Fair "Paper : Misc" category again this year.

Continuing to riff on my Les Fleurs du Mal typeset, expanding the 'book flower' into a fuller 'book-uet'

My mom and I finally found my tea set that I was given to when I was a baby. (Probably, my mom can't remember who gave it to me and I don't remember so I must've been very little!😅) But I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take pictures with the set. Also, fun fact, I've had this book for like 3 years now and I haven't read a single story in it. But I love it! Have a good day lovelies! Xo!💜

The last flower book I made during that flurry of activity back in... April? Incorporated an actual dead leaf so it’s ridiculously delicate. Rather than a straight loquat dye, I tried to use ribwort leaves for some reason and it produced such a mirky, dingy color that I actually kind of hate love it. Now here, above all the others, is a Flower of Evil ;)

Another Les Fleurs du mal book, or rather bouk-uet. Book Bouquet that is.

📚🌸The Book Flower Review🌸📚 Title: ‘Hidden Figures’ by Margot Lee Shetterly Rate: 7/10 Quote: “…the best thing about breaking a barrier was that it would never have to be broken again.” Overall Experience: I have to say I am a little iffy on the book. It’s not that I did not enjoy it, but I found it a difficult read. I think this was mostly because of the lengthy, inflated sentence structure as well as the fact that it’s about math and science, which are two subjects that have always been hard for me. However, the sentence structure sometimes felt like it could have been a narrator in a movie; it sometimes reminded me of Morgan Freeman in the movie 'The Shawshank Redemption.’ It was definitely educational and is worth the read if you are interested in math and/or science. I also thought that this book was a memoir and I was disappointed to find that it was more biography. Lastly, yes, I watched the movie first. *GASP* but in my defense, it was either watch the movie or read the book for an extra credit assignment in one of my classes last semester, and I didn’t have the time to finish a book in a week with all the homework and projects I had. The movie definitely does not do the book justice.
