Scorpio Hates Virgo

Signs of Love Series, Book 2

De: Anyta Sunday

Narrado por: Rudy Sanda

This year is all about healing the heart, Scorpio. It's time to leave negative attitudes and stoic facades at the door, and let others see the real, more vulnerable you.

Percy Freedman is not grieving. Absolutely not, take that back at once. No, he's entirely sure that selling his dead aunt's home and leaving the neighbors he's known for years is the sane thing to do. Who in their right mind would keep the house that smells like all the hugs he'll never have again? Nobody, that's who. Well, except his cul-de-sac neighbors. They all seem to think some paint and new furniture will clean the emotional slate. They all want him to stay. Even his nemesis, Callaghan Glover. Especially his nemesis, Callaghan Glover.

Lured into a game of Sherlock Gnomes, Percy finds himself hanging out with his neighbors more than might be considered healthy. Along with juggling new and surprising verbal grenades from Cal, and his burgeoning friendship with Gnomber9, Percy is starting to wonder if selling might have been the grief talking after all.... That's right, Scorpio. With a little patience, heartbreak might be a thing of the past....

Contains mature themes.

This is one of my favorite books finally in audio!

This was such an amazing unexpected delight! I was a bit hesitant, the blurb was cute but I thought it would be an average read. I WAS SOOOOO WRONG!!!!

This book is beautifully written, almost lyrical at times and so very unique in the MM genre. I adore the writing in its clever complexity, geekiness and attention to details that make characters pop and steal your heart! It was delicately witty, funny and charming.
I loved to slow seductive burn and unfolding of Cal and Percy's feelings to each other interwoven in their growing friendship and diminishing nemeses-ness. Every character is so unique, one of a kind and very specific, in a way that draws you in until you feel like you too live in the cul-de-sac with them. The buildup was almost tangible, sexy and kept me at the edge of my seat without big drama in the story, and it was so captivating to read. I wanted them to get together already but keep teasing and skirting around their attraction because it was almost better than a full on sex scene. ALMOST…. When Cal and Percy finally do get together it is so rewarding and thrilling, sexy and touching. I needed this book to clear my palette in-between, albeit good, cookie- cutter books. I want more, I NEED more!
***Narration***
This was the first book I read in this series, it made me fall in love with Anyta's writing and I later got all the books in the series. I was thrilled to learn they are coming out in audio and the first one was really good. I liked the narrator, the first time I listened to a book narrated by him, and his rendition of the characters.
In this book you really get the sense he grew into the characters and the story, the voices feel natural to him and fit the characters well. I really feel like this book is an improvement from the first one, and it is my favorite in the series so it was a delight to listen to.
Looking for the next one coming out on audio soon!

Love of Signs

I have enjoyed reading this story. I read Leo loves Aries and decided to see what this one was about. Very good story.

Enjoyable

Really cute story. The voice of one of the main characters annoyed me but the story was really warm and enjoyable. I didn’t want it to be over. Only minor character overlap from book 1 so this can be read and enjoyed without reading the other first

Sweet Story, Narration Cartoony

I read this a few years ago and loved it, so was excited to listen to the audiobook version. The voice actor is talented....but some of the voices he uses are very cartoonish. I think he would be better for other genres like fantasy or childrens books. The voice of Cal in particular was so over the top silly which sometimes took you out of the romantic scenes. It still was an enjoyable listen as he IS a good narrator, but it definitely required tolerating Cals voice.

Cute story

I've read this book before, so I was hoping the audio book would be a nice, soothing listen. I did enjoy the story and the characters, but I could not get over the narrator. Cal's voice was a very snooty drawl that did not fit the character and drove me crazy. He sounds like one of those upper-crust Conneticut bros who refuses to tip their server, wears loafers without socks, has a sister named Muffy, and that you are contractually obligated to despise. In other words, nothing like a middle class, grad student from the suburbs of Philly. It actually mostly ruined the romantic scenes for me. I enjoy the author, but I will not be listening to this particular audio book again.
