Celebrate Everyday With Books - MAY 25TH 2020 - Geek Pride Day

Celebrate Every Day With Books 

It seems like everyday has some new theme to celebrate so I thought it might be fun to see what kind of interesting books I can find (new, old, or coming soon) for an everyday holiday. In fact, most days have more than one holiday!

TODAY 

IS 

MAY 25TH 2020

GEEK PRIDE DAY

“The idea for the day spread around the internet and was first officially celebrated in the United States in 2008. The following year, Science Channel put on special programming related to the day. The day spread to other countries in the following years, with celebrations, parties, meetups, and parades happening all around the world.” (from checkiday.com)

Just so you know I have not read most of these but the ones I pick seem the most interesting and would like to read. You can probably find tons more books for each holiday but I am only going to pick two books for one holiday a day. 

Let me know what you think. Do any of them seem interesting to you? Is there another book you think would be a better choice?
