Publisher's summary

Now a Netflix original series

Frustrated at the path her life has taken, Alice decides to take control of her personal life using astrology as her guide in this quirky, steamy, and hilarious romantic comedy.

Alice Bassi is (a little) over 30, single (not by choice), and she can’t help but feel that she is failing at this whole adulthood thing. She’s stuck in a dead-end job, just found out her ex-boyfriend is engaged to his pregnant girlfriend, and Richard Gere hasn’t shown up with flowers and a limo to save her from it all.

On one particularly disastrous morning - when Alice would much rather have stayed home, curled up with her favorite rom-coms - she meets Davide Nardi. Handsome yet indecipherable, Davide would be the leading man of Alice’s dreams - if only he weren’t the “hatchet man” brought in to help streamline production and personnel at the small television network she works for.

In the midst of all this, Alice runs into Tio - an actor and astrology expert who is convinced he can turn her life around with a little help from the stars. Skeptical but willing, Alice decides to take Tio’s advice and only date men whose Zodiac signs are compatible with hers. Unfortunately, it turns out that astrological affinity doesn’t always guarantee a perfect match, nor prevent a series of terrible dates, disappointments, and awkward surprises. It also doesn’t keep Davide from becoming more attractive every day.

Perfect for fans of Bridget Jones’s Diary and Star-Crossed, An Astrological Guide for Broken Hearts is a witty, sexy, and relatable portrait of a modern woman’s search for love and a dream job, only to discover that your destiny isn’t always written in the stars.

Cute Story, Narration was Meh

I was invested enough to listen in its entirety. The story was a little predictable although that’s okay given the genre. I was disappointed in some of the outcomes. The narrator was good at different voices but the speaking was choppy. I’m not sure if that was due to the reading or the writing.

Not something I would re-listen to, but I did like the characters, so there is that.

Italiana Bridget Jones & the Stars

I purchased the book after watching season 1 on Netflix & needed to know what happens to Alice, Davide & my favorite Tio!! Funny, romantic & it’s set in one of the most beautiful, fascinating & romantic country! Fingers crossed Netflix produces another season.

Disappointed with the heroine

Could not finish, I found the "heroine" foolish, making stupid choices. Too immature. I don't understand the good reviews.

yuck

the narration kept me from listening for more than 10 minutes, so I don't even know what the story will be. None the less, the main character seems like an idiot.

Uugh!!

Over nine hours of irritating, shallow silliness that took over eight hours to evolve even the slightest bit!

I took a chance when I selected this, of course, hoping an Astrological Guide might prove to be a clever, fun few hours, as can be some YA efforts, which are well written and snappily edited. Guide went on-&-on, however, a wallow in Life-wasting “who cares”?!

The narrator’s voice was pleasant and fittingly cute and light for the content, so that worked fine enough, BUT:

After 16 chapters, I finally “edited” myself and skipped ahead to the last three, then the epilogue. Done, thank goodness!

I finished this read/listen

But I don't know how. There was something just irritating about it and and the characters were hard to follow follow. Too much single dumb I'm not enough love.
