July was one of those months that lasted 10 minutes. Actually, 2020 has been like this. But I still managed to read five books. Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer Annihilation is the first book from the Southern Command trilogy. This book was written as if it was a diary from a biologist during her expedition to
June was a weird a month both personally and globally. On a personal level it was a very busy but also anxious time. On global level the Black Lives Matters movement dominated the headlines, changed the way we look at police and history and, according to The New York Times, might be the largest movement
May was an ok month. June was another story, but I’ll get to that on another post. I managed to read 7 books in total, some of them different from what I usually read. A Girl Called Shameless by Laura Steven, originally published in 2019 A Girl Called Shameless tells the story of Izzy O’Neill,

As you might be aware by now, I love reading. I love reading books, blogs, news, articles… basically anything with words I can understand. Since Sea of Fleurs was first created as a way of me sharing things I love, I thought it might be nice if I also shared with you some of the
Somewhere around January I read a review on goodreads with the most perfect quote. “Conversations with Friends is another one of those books about not particularly nice people entangled in awkward relationships,” wrote Esil (the author of said review). Conversations with Friends is the second novel by Sally Rooney, a young Irish author. It tells
I’m a sucker for a good red lipstick. So, when I went into the Kiko store to buy one of my favorite concealers, I couldn’t resist their holiday collection. I loved all the palettes, but what I got was their Magical Holiday Vynil Lip Lacquer (what a long name!) in the color nº 5 Red
I have no idea how to start this text, literally. On the past couple of months, I didn’t read as much as I regularly do, mainly because I had other priorities. At first, I felt bad about it, but then I remembered that 1) I already fulfilled my goal related to reading and 2) I
