Description

The New York Times bestseller that helps you explore whether romance is in the stars. Linda Goodman's Love Signs addresses the question asked by everyone familiar with astrology: How do I relate to someone of another sign? Each sign is "related" to the twelve signs of the zodiac in a different and unique way. Each section addresses the differences for a male and a female with the same sign matches. This is an updated edition of Linda Goodman's lively bestseller, which has introduced millions to the concept of astrological compatibility.

This is absolutely my favourite astrology book. Linda Goodman gives each possible zodiac pairing such thorough treatment -- far more so than any other book I've found.Even though it focuses on aspects of love and romance, there's a lot of general information about each sign packed in as well.

Goodman doesn't merely provide the same dry retellings of each sign's qualities; she makes the descriptions highly entertaining, thought-provoking, and relateable. As always, her insights onto the signs are well elaborated and quite detailed. She treats the subject of love with such compassion, making the point that if any two people are willing to work enough on their relationship, any two signs can learn to live in harmony. A truly incredible work. While there are a few sections (notably in Aquarius and Pisces) that get a bit too New-Agey for my tastes, I was completely delighted with her treatment of Leos. ;) All of Goodman's books are worthy astrological guides, but this is far and away the best of them.

Linda is extremely talented, and I've spend many enjoyable hours reading this and contemplating it. I especially enjoy her useage of quotations (I'm not a "Peter Pan" fan, but she really has a way with finding exactly the right ones). I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to take a look at her or

his compatability with other signs.

Very interesting, thorough look in to the signs and their compatability. Very easy to use and follow Great book!

Not what I was looking for, but filled a need for knowledge nonetheless. This book doesn't accurately explain Sun Signs. It does for a general view, yes, but when it comes to people, you really need to make a birth chart for them, interpret each, and then synastry - it's all in the details! On the

other hand, I will give credit for being fabulously funny, witty and romantic. It really did fuel my interest in astrology, and bettered my understanding by giving examples of the character of each sign as human beings, along with the season they prefer and the body part they affect.

I found the writing incredibly clunky and like molasses - hard to get through and lacklustre
