♈ ARIES (March 21 – April 20)

Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard


Aries are bold, brave, and always charging headfirst into adventure—and Red Queen is a perfect match. With a fiery heroine who topples kingdoms and defies destiny, this book hits every Aries button: action-packed, high-stakes, and just the right amount of rebellious.


♉ TAURUS (April 21 – May 21)

The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong


Tauruses are grounded, sensual, and loyal to the bone. The Gathering offers a lush, nature-rich setting, a slow-burn romance, and characters that reflect Taurus’ steadfast, earthy vibe. Think loyalty, mystery, and a touch of wilderness magic.


♊ GEMINI (May 22 – June 21)

Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley


Geminis are witty, charming, and a little bit dual-natured (we see you, twins). Magonia is weird, whimsical, and totally unexpected. Plus, it’s filled with clever banter, strange skies, and a protagonist who literally lives between two worlds.


♋ CANCER (June 22 – July 22)

Extraordinary Means by Robyn Schneider


Sensitive, intuitive, and always in their feels—Cancers need stories that hit them in the heart. Extraordinary Means is an emotional rollercoaster that explores life, love, and everything that lies between. Get ready to cry (and love every minute of it).


♌ LEO (July 23 – August 22)

Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge


Leos are born royalty—bold, radiant, and fiercely self-aware. Cruel Beauty gives you a heroine worthy of the crown: strong, smart, and not afraid to face the darkness. Plus, the writing is lush and dramatic, just like a Leo’s ideal aesthetic.


♍ VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)

The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson


Virgos are analytical, eloquent, and low-key powerhouses. This book features a protagonist who starts off underestimated but becomes a sharp, strategic leader. It’s full of growth, grit, and Virgo-level pragmatism—and zero tolerance for nonsense.


♎ LIBRA (September 23 – October 23)

Proof of Forever by Lexa Hillyer


Libras are all about balance, beauty, and meaningful relationships. Proof of Forever delivers a bittersweet blend of nostalgia, second chances, and friendship dynamics. A perfectly symmetrical story with emotional depth and dreamy aesthetics.


♏ SCORPIO (October 24 – November 22)

Forbidden by Kimberley Griffiths-Little


Intense, magnetic, and a little mysterious, Scorpios will devour this passionate, desert-set story of love, danger, and ancient traditions. With a fierce heroine and high emotional stakes, Forbidden channels all that Scorpio power.


♐ SAGITTARIUS (November 23 – December 21)

Things We Know By Heart by Jessi Kirby


Optimistic, philosophical, and a little wild at heart, Sagittarians will appreciate the emotional journey in this story of healing, love, and discovery. It’s heartfelt and hopeful—just like you.


♑ CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 20)

Panic by Lauren Oliver


Capricorns are disciplined, determined, and strategic. Panic follows a group of teens competing in a dangerous game with high stakes—perfect for Capricorns who thrive on challenge and calculated risk. Think: drive, ambition, and guts.


♒ AQUARIUS (January 21 – February 18)

Prisoner of Night and Fog by Anne Blankman


Aquarians are progressive, independent thinkers who question everything—and this historical thriller delivers. With a heroine who breaks from propaganda to seek the truth, it’s cerebral, challenging, and totally Aquarius-core.


♓ PISCES (February 19 – March 20)

September Girls by Bennett Madison


Dreamy, imaginative, and spiritually tuned in—Pisces readers crave otherworldly stories. September Girls is lyrical, surreal, and brimming with mystical mermaid lore. Perfect for getting lost in the tide of a strange, shimmering story.
