HumanistsMN Fantasy(ish) Book Club: "When the Moon Hits Your Eye" by John Scalzi
Advertisement
Any and all are welcome at our monthly HumanistsMN Fantasy Book Club! Join us the last Wednesday of every month. Come discuss the book of the month with us -- or listen in and contribute to our frequent meanderings about pop-culture and other passions.
Our book for July is ""When the Moon Hits Your Eye" by John Scalzi. what would really happen if suddenly the moon were replaced by a giant wheel of cheese.
It's a whole new moooooon.
One day soon, suddenly and without explanation, the moon as we know it is replaced with an orb of cheese with the exact same mass. Through the length of an entire lunar cycle, from new moon to a spectacular and possibly final solar eclipse, we follow multiple characters -- schoolkids and scientists, billionaires and workers, preachers and politicians -- as they confront the strange new world they live in, and the absurd, impossible moon that now hangs above all their lives.
Our book club facilitator is Cory Brodeur, HumanistsMN member, who enjoys getting lost in fantasy books, nerdy pop culture discussions, and cats. Cory's goal is to bring people together to bond over fantasy worlds while discussing how we can make positive changes in the real world!
This event is sponsored by HumanistsMN. We are a secular non-profit organization with the goal of bettering our community, connecting with others, promoting educational opportunities, and defending basic human rights.
We are 100% volunteer powered. If you want to help give back, consider becoming a member to help us cover costs and bring together the community. Not ready to join? Donations are gratefully accepted! Join or donate at [HumanistsMN.org]( https://humanistsmn.org).
