This time it's a Virgo! As a Virgo, 13 year-old Thebe likes order and neatness, but with her two disorganised celebrity astrologer parents around, things rarely go to plan. Then, on top of all this usual mess, Thebe's self-centred cousin Yasmin comes to stay in Thebe's room! Fed up of being the quiet, dependable one, Thebe uses her new status as Zodiac Girl to try and change her life and overcome her deepest fears...

Спомням си като бях по-малка, че много харесвах тази поредица и реших да си ги припомня.

Много приятна и бърза за четене книжка, пълна с поуки при това! :)

A well written, good book to pass the time for.

Being a Virgo myself, I find a few similarities with the main character, Thebe; well, except the extremely well-organized part. I'm more of the messy type, but I do know which pile is what.

When Thebe was chosen as the Zodiac Girl for the month, just like her, I had thought, Maybe, just maybe that there might be some romances involved, especially when Venus and Moon was rather prominent in her birth chart.

Through and through things hardly go in the way that Thebe wants but as most stories with a happy ending goes, it all will turn out fine. Of course with her Guardian Planet going into retrograde mode, vacationing somewhere unknown, where any means of communications somehow become unreachable to him.

Read it yourself to find out how things become from exciting to a mess and back to normal again for Thebe, the Virgo Zodiac Girl from Cathy Hopkins.

I read this book in just a day and a half. It was a really quick read but I enjoyed every second of it. It teaches you alot about the constellations which I found real enjoyable. This girl...Thebe...her parents work in businesses that deal with the stars and when Thebe finds out that she is a Zodiac Girl she doesn't want anything to go wrong. But when unexpected family visitors come and her guardian goes retrograde absolutely nothing is going right! Find out if Thebe can work things out or if her entire family is just seeing stars!

These books were my favourite when I was a young teenager, I still have them now and love them just as much. The book covers are so pretty, the original ones at least. I love the illustration, the colours and how they include the zodiac signs in the book and a little information sheet about the zodiac sign. I loved Recipe for Rebellion as well as From Geek to Goddess. These books are perfect for young readers who are interested in zodiac signs. The idea of the planets being in human form is such a fun idea and I love how each character had their own unique personality and how they are trying to help each zodiac girl. I wish there were more of them!

This book was okay in my opinion but I’m not rly interested in astrology or Zodiac signs....lol but yeah the author was pretty cool and I think it was just okay for me. Btw FYI i’m a LIBRA ♎️♎️♎️ and I love the fact that in the beginning of the book there was a chart for you to find your own Zodiac sign so yeah!! I don’t rly love this book like how I loveeee loveee loveeee KoTLC (go check that book out)(kotlc i’m referring to) I loved this book for 15.9 percent outta 100 so yep either ways this was an interesting book but it could’ve been better so yeah! Byee peeps!

This was the best of the series, I think. The plot was the most compelling.
