This review is from: Picking Your Perfect Partner Through Astrology:: A Guide to Compatibility in Relationships (Paperback)

I really wanted to like this book; it was given to me as a gift by someone who knows that I have an interest in astrology, so I read it with an open mind. First, let me say that I am an astrology hobbyist and not a professional. This book seemed more `professional' or at least attempted to be. The book itself was easy to read but, at times, hard to understand. The author assumes a lot about the readers - namely, that we understand all these astrological/natal chart terms, and secondly, that we have astrology charts handy and by our side. I think that was a HUGE mistake on the author's part - the book never mentioned that you will need to have birth charts at the ready, yet the entire book relies upon having your own birth chart ready and also that of your partner, friends, family, etc. The text is pretty useless without having the charts. I figured this book would be more for laymen, but it wasn't. I expected a fun, light read and this wasn't that type of book. I don't have much respect for this author - she infuses the text with her own personal opinions (particularly about people who dislike the study of astrology), she hypes her own credentials throughout, she constantly mentions "read my other books for more information," and she doesn't follow through with some of her own complaints. For instance, she talks about the importance of using imagery to get a better feel for astrology and how it works (ie imagine a crab (Cancer) working alongside a bull (Taurus)), and yet the book has very limited illustrations. Very unimpressed by this book. Theattempt to link psychology/astrology here fails, and there are other books out there that do a far better job of linking the two without actually attempting to. This was a big disappointment.
