Description

A laugh-out-loud LGBTQ+ romantic comedy from a stellar debut talent.

Life is fraught for fourteen-year-old, zodiac-obsessed Cat. First there’s a minor bus-meets-girl accident, then there’s a boy-next-door suitor who can’t take a hint, but the most desperate disaster of all is Cat’s crush on the stunning and poetic Alison Bridgewater.

According to their star charts, Cat and Alison are the perfect match. To which Alison (woe alas!) remains oblivious.

But when the dangerously cool Morgan Delaney wades into the river to save Cat’s sketchbook of kissing Disney princesses, she sends Cat’s stars spinning.

Can Cat get over her Alison obsession and follow her heart towards Morgan? Or should she exercise caution? After all, Morgan is a Gemini, and if there’s one thing Cat’s Bible to the Stars has taught her it’s that you can never – ever – trust a Gemini…

Publisher Review

Celebrates LGBTQ+ romance, as well as the joys and complications that go with being 14, and is hilariously funny to boot. * The Bookseller * A heart-warming, uplifting and all kinds of joyous read that will leave you smiling well after the final page. * NetGalley Reviewer * Gooseberries, this is a funny book full of quirky phrases, teenage antics and the joy of first love. [...] a funny LGBTQ+ romance for the YA market that will appeal to those looking for a light-hearted escape that will leave a warm glow in your heart. * K and O Bonkers About Books * This reads like a teenage LGBQT version of the Bridget Jones' Diary. [...] I love the writing style of the author. The protagonist reminds me of my teenage self. I can just picture how my students can identify with her because of the way that she talks / writes in the book. * NetGalley Reviewer * Never Trust a Gemini is a funny romp through the age of fourteen, featuring a chaotic lesbian disaster of a main character, teens being messy and imperfect (and learning), and just in general, a plot that keeps you entertained. It was a book that I wholeheartedly enjoyed reading. * NetGalley Reviewer *
