Too slow.  Not a lot of focus.

A fun and light, quick paced read, with a few twists but a great love story.
I enjoyed this book and the characters, with their flaws and interesting choices, a great writing style and overall a good book that it's perfect for the lovers of the genre.

It’s official - I adore Minnie Darke’s books!

This book was just delightful! I especially enjoyed the interwoven lives, plot lines and happenstance occurring through the story, which was also a feature of the author’s other book, The Lost Love Song.

I just love the way Minnie Darke writes. She writes about an everyday Australia that I recognise. Everything is so familiar and I love the small details of everyday life that she makes beautiful.

I was a little worried this book would break my heart (because ouch, I’m still hurting from The Lost Love Song!) but it’s a sweet, heartwarming read.

I loved this tale of mischief in the star sign pages causing utter chaos & surprising results in reader’s lives. I recommend this to all readers looking for some fantastic Aussie fiction with a side of romance, but if you’re interested in astrology then this book will especially appeal!

I really wanted to love this book but I was just bored. Started off well but just not for me

Too many characters too quickly who seemed irrelevant

Cute, funny, quick read. After reading the jacket flap, my expectations were set for a light, astrology-centric rom-com and I was not disappointed on that front!
