Since Queer Pride Month is in June, I’m sure you’re already expecting June’s theme. However, it’d be boring to have the same prompt every year, so to mix it up, the additional prompt is …

Theme: moon

Read and review anything that’s a book – novels, comics, mangas, graphic novels, poem collections, scripts, short stories, zines, et cetera. (Audiobooks count too, of course!).

How to take part

  • Write a review of a/multiple queer book/s where a moon is part of the plot or makes an appearance.
    • Need inspirations? Check out the tags at the bottom of the page!
  • Post the review here on Pending Plays. (New here? Check out this page: https://pendingplays.co.uk/register-to-review/)
  • Add the tag BookGuildJune2025 to your post

Rules

  • Read the book in May (it can be a volume from a series you’re currently reading, but shouldn’t be a re-read)
    • Queerness (LGBTQIAP+) needs to be the main theme/rep (it does not need to revolve around the political aspect; it’s enough when the MCs are canonically queer).
    • Additionally, a/multiple moon/s also has/have to be part of the book in some way or another (ie, on the cover, in the title, part of the main plot, a symbolic theme, jewelry that the protagonist is wearing, etc)
  • Timeframe to read and review: 1st to 30th June 2025
    • (If you happen to be busy in June, don’t worry about posting your review after the timeframe! We’re not that strict here!)

Looking forward to your reviews!
