New Book Group: Star Signs 🌌

Our Third Season: Gemini After the steady, grounded rhythm of the Bull, we are shifting into the quicksilver energy of the Twins. Is your next great read written in the stars? Come join the conversation as we transition from earth to air. We are continuing our journey during Gemini season (May 21st – June 20th). As an Air sign ruled by Mercury, Gemini invites us to embrace curiosity, duality, and the fast-paced exchange of ideas. This is a time to celebrate wit, storytelling, and the restless brilliance of the mind. Our Third Read: The Coin by Yasmin Zaher (2024) For our third pick, we’ve selected this sharp, provocative, and highly stylized novel. It is a masterclass in Gemini energy, capturing the true spirit of the Twins through its focus on obsession, high-fashion, and the fragmented nature of identity. Why it’s a "Gemini" Book: Gemini is an Air sign, ruled by Mercury (the planet of communication, intellect, and tricksters). Yasmin Zaher’s narrative is anchored by that same restless, intellectual, and multi-faceted spirit: Dualities & Disguises: Gemini is the sign of the Twins, and The Coin explores the split between the internal self and the external persona. It navigates the thin line between elegance and filth, wealth and margin. Mercury’s Fast Pace: Much like the quick-witted nature of Gemini, the prose is sharp and moves with a frenetic, nervous intelligence. It captures the "buzz" of modern life and the constant movement of a curious mind. The Power of Language: Gemini thrives on social exchange. This novel is obsessed with how we present ourselves to the world and the stories we tell to survive.
