October Moon Info:There are TWO full moons this month! Two in the same month is called a Blue Moon. The most interesting thing is that the first full moon is today, October 1st, but the second full moon is on October 31st...there has not been a full moon on Halloween since 1944! There was one on October 29, 2000, but it has been 76 years since Halloween skies were lit by a full moon on October 31st! Oooooh, how cool!

I would like to join this! Also, you said only one book per thing right? so like you could only really get 32 points, or whatever
Mod
Would this count for fall colors?
My book choices:
A Fall leaf on the cover
Takes place during Fall
A Dark/Creepy book
Reread a book you've read this year
Published in October
Fall colored theme on cover

I thought you could only do one book for each theme?

"I thought you could only do one book for each theme?"
She hasn't done that theme yet
Oh, lol ignore me, I should probably make sure I read the stuff above clearly XD
I think each of the books I chose is in it's own catagory...Fall Leaf (2 points), takes place during Fall (3 points), dark/creepy (2 points), Fall-colored cover (1 point), and Reread a book I've read (5 points). I think I'm okay with the books I'm reading. I didn't repeat any books or any catagories.🤔Pamela
Em wrote: "No, I thought the same thing at first XD"I just realized that the way I worded the additional book was confusing. I meant I'm adding one for Fall-colored theme. It sounded as though I meant I was adding one more to the same catagory...sorry!😕
Mod
Thanks! I just edited my post. I am enjoying this Scavenger Hunt Challenge and am so glad I joined in!😁
Mod
:D Glad you joined too!
For some reason, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories" has shown up twice on my October Scavanger Hunt list. I only read it once, so I have actually read six books this month, not seven.

Book scavenger hunts are like scavenger hunts but with reading! There will be a list of items (eg: read a book with a green cover) and each item will have a different point value. You will have one month to gather as many points as you can, and at the end of the month, the person with the most points wins!
Rules:
1. One book per item on the list—books CANNOT double count!
2. You must read the book within the month of the scavenger hunt—previously read books DO NOT count (unless, of course, you reread)!
3. Magazines DO NOT count.
4. Short stories DO NOT count (unless you read an anthology of short stories).
5. Novellas DO count.
6. HAVE FUN!!!
