Publisher's summary

“A sweet and spicy story about found family, taking chances on love, and getting through your Saturn return.”—Elissa Sussman, bestselling author of Funny You Should Ask

A newly single queer woman moves to New Orleans and sets off on a mission to find her most compatible match by going on a date with someone of each astrological sign in this rom-com from the Lambda Literary Award-nominated author of Queerly Beloved.

Reeling from a breakup with her long-term partner, Gray—an optimistic lesbian Aries—relocates to New Orleans for a new job. Gray wants to meet someone, settle down, and build the loving, accepting family she’s always wanted, but having been out of the dating scene for a decade, she has no idea where to start. After visiting an iconic astrologer, Gray and her best friend, Cherry, draw up a dramatic scheme: Gray will go on a date with someone of each zodiac sign to test their compatibility and get a jump start on creating the queer family of her dreams—all before her twenty-ninth birthday, when Saturn will usher in a major turning point in her life.

Gray’s got her hands full getting to know her new city, proving herself at her new job, wooing twelve new paramours—cue bathroom hookups, ghosts, getting ghosted, incredible macchiatos, and celesbians—and making some surprising discoveries about her needs and desires. Even when the dating challenge throws a few curveballs that make Gray question what she believes that she’s destined for, she’s determined to finish what she’s started while the planets are still on her side.

* This audobook edition includes a downloadable PDF that contains New Orleans food and drink pairings for each sign and two recipes from the book.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Call me out why doncha?

First, I knew the narrator was reading this book to me, that's how audiobooks work, but I didn't realize I was about to get read as well!
When the Sagittarius date came up, I had to pause to research the author and make sure they were not one of my exes. Though, of course, they weren't, since as a Sag I'm friends with basically all my exes and they'd have told me if they published an novel.
I'm into astrology on a slightly more than casual level, though not on a super serious "make life choices based solely on whether mercury is in retrograde" level, but I know people all over the astro belief spectrum, and am aware of friend's/family's astrology charts, so this was a ton of fun to read, and I had friends telling me to let them know when she dated their sign for updates.
It's a really fun read, and fairly light with medium -low angst, not very tropey, but still touched on some serious subjects, like recovering from growing up in hyper religious environments.
I'll be rereading this for sure one of these days! I highly recommend!
