Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I changed the title because I liked the new one better.

description

LUNAR MADNESS MINI CHALLENGE JULY 1ST TO JULY 31ST.

This is totally for fun and super simple.

On July 20th, 1969, Buzz Aldrin & Neil Armstrong landed on the moon.

So let's read books related to the moon in some way.

1: Moon on the cover
2: Moon in the title
3: Plot centered around a full moon.
4: Zodiac connected plot, title etc..,
5: Shape shifter, werewolf plot.
6: Astronauts, space exploration etc..,
7: Alien Invasion


Or do a spell out: MOON, LUNA, LUNAR, MAN ON THE MOON, MOON MADNESS, LUNAR ECLIPSE, Apollo, Buzz Aldin, Neil Armstrong, NASA-or create your own moon/space themed spell out.
