Book Description

A Young Adult Novel

A story about crushes, conflicts and astrological confusion.

Finally, after years of making love predictions for her friends, fifteen-year-old astrologer, Emma Seigel, sees a boyfriend in her future. But there’s one big problem. Mercury is heading for Retrograde in four weeks, and she sure knows what that means. It’s like an astrological PMS. A disastrous time to start a new relationship.

Using her school newspaper column, Emmastrology, she sets a plan in motion and within a week lands hottie Evan Randolph as her boyfriend. She’s a Taurus. He’s a Capricorn. Both earth signs. What could be more perfect? But is he as perfect as her prediction claims him to be? The stars are telling her it’s right. But her heart says it’s all wrong.

Everyday her feelings are growing stronger for someone else, a Leo, so totally not the sign for her. And to make matters even worse, Emma’s actions, caused by her unflinching belief in astrology, get her in trouble with her best friends in the whole world.

Time is running out. Can Emma straighten up this mess she’s in before Mercury goes Retrograde again?

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun summer read... June 15, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Emma, a 15-year old astrologer, is surprised when her own stars line up perfectly for love. But can she bag the boyfriend before Mercury goes retrograde -- an astrological event known for causing problems with communication? And is the boyfriend who looks perfect on paper really the right one for her? Mercury in Retro Love is an authentic, fun and frothy look at the uncertainty and angst of teen-love. Great characters in a fun story. Definitely better than the average YA novel and the astrology appears to be well-researched.

Mercury in Retro Love is a great story. The book is lighthearted and fun and gives the reader a glimpse into the heart and mind of teenage girl. Janie Emaus just might be this generation's Judy Blume. I would highly recommend it to any girl (and her mother)looking for a good Summer read! I hope that Emaus comes out with another book soon!
