"I loved this completely.
Star-Crossed is all about the human impulse to look to others when we are lost, and so it's wonderfully relatable not only in its lively characters who read as faraway-yet-familiar as neighbors but also in its navigation of the kinds of decisions we can't face alone: the phone calls we make to our mothers, the friends we use as mirrors, the horoscope page at the back of the magazine. This is a bright, brilliant, joyful love story that spreads into the size of a small town with its chorus of voices and old homes and childhoods and gossips. A total triumph."
―Josie Silver, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Day in December "You don't need to care a thing about astrology to find
Star-Crossed a five-star delight. Minnie Darke has written a sharp, funny, and irresistible rom-com that melted my cold, skeptical (Gemini/moon in Sag) heart. I predict you'll fall, too."
--Lisa Gabriele, bestselling author of The Winters A beautiful, uplifting book full of humor and humanity, and sprinkled with enough magic that I finished it hoping that we are all, even if only a little bit, at the mercy of the stars."
--Cressida McLaughlin, author of The House of Birds and Butterflies
"
Star-Crossed is the funny, clever, big-hearted romance of the year. Brilliant!"
