Listless Monday: Framed Books

Listless Monday was inspired by both Amanda at A Bookshelf Monstrosity's feature Books by Theme and Court at Once Upon a Bookshelf's Listed feature.  Be sure to check out their lists!

I wanted to do a Name That Book, but I haven't got the time or energy right now for it.  If you are wanting more puzzles like Name That Book, might I suggest you check out Mrs. Stakey's 6th grade class blog.  They decided to do some Name That Book puzzles and they are so awesome!  I love seeing other people's puzzles, so if you decide to do one, let me know and I'll link to yours (do link back to me, please). 

So, I simply decided on a whim today to do a Listless Monday featuring books with frames on the cover.  It's not really a common thing, but one that is unique and can make an interesting display.

Listless Monday: Moon Books

In celebration of the upcoming Easter holiday, I decided to do a list of books involving the moon.  How, you ask, is that a celebration of Easter?  Ah, because the date for Easter is decided by picking the first Sunday after the first full moon, after the Spring Equinox.  Follow me?  Either way, it's as good a time as any to pull out a moony list. 

Beneath a Meth Moon by Jacqueline Woodson
Blue Moon by Alyson Noel
Claire de Lune by Christine Johnson
Emily of New Moon by L.M. Montgomery
Graffiti Moon by Cath Crowley

The Timekeeper's Moon by Joni Sensel

Notably, I didn't delve into the werewolf genre, because every one has a different take on whether the moon is important or not.  Any suggestions?

While trying to figure out what to do for Listless Monday (I'm so bad at getting them out), I realized I kept seeing a new cover trend.  It seems like there have been a lot of winged covers lately, though if I'm limiting it to newer releases, I didn't find quite that many.  Here are the ones I could find:

I've done at least three love-related Listless Mondays before, but this year I decided to go with something more visual to display. And this way, it includes books that are love oriented and some that are more an anti-valentine-ish.
