Never Trust A Gemini - Freja Nicole Woolfe

 

Living her life through her horoscope, fifteen year old Cat Phillips is ready for love as soon as Libra season hits; however, there's just one small problem: her crush is on her best friend Alison Bridgewater who doesn't seem to feel the same way.  Perhaps a boyfriend will help?  And then what happens when new girl, Morgan Delaney arrives at school?  Can Cat's horoscope really be right?  Should she Never Trust A Gemini?

Gooseberries, this is a a funny book full of quirky phrases, teenage antics and the joy of first love.  Cat and her friends look out for each other but aren't particularly nice to others at school, so when Morgan comes along and doesn't seem to care what others think of her, it's a bit of a wake-up call for Cat and I liked that.  Amongst the laughs and the language, there are some serious messages about discovering who you are and friendship.  I also liked Luna's environmental messages which were woven into the plot.

Publishing 1st June Never Trust A Gemini is a funny LGBTQ+ romance for the YA market that will appeal to those looking for a light-hearted escape that will leave a warm glow in your heart.
