♈AriesMar 21 to Apr 19

Oliver Twist · Charles Dickens
♉TaurusApr 20 to May 20

Giovanni's Room · James Baldwin
♊GeminiMay 21 to Jun 20

None of This Is True · Lisa Jewell

The Brothers Hawthorne · Jennifer Lynn Barnes
♍VirgoAug 23 to Sep 22

The Year of Magical Thinking · Joan Didion
♎LibraSep 23 to Oct 22

Powerless · Lauren Roberts
♏ScorpioOct 23 to Nov 21
