What to Read

Ashley Herring Blake
Delilah Green Doesn’t Care

This book has everything a Gemini needs: complex characters and the "main character who leaves a big city and finds love in a small town" trope that we all can't help but fall for. Delilah Green Doesn’t Care tells the story of a photographer who heads back to her hometown and reconnects with Claire, a girl from her past. As you can guess, one thing leads to another, which leads to them questioning whether they are more than just friends.

The Geography of Lost Things

If the title of this novel doesn't scream Gemini for you, the plot sure will. Ali Collins is left with her late father's 1968 Firebird convertible and has no intentions of keeping it. An offer to sell the car comes her way that is enough money to save her childhood home from foreclosure, but there are two problems: The buyer is 300 miles away and Ali cannot drive a stick shift. She recruits her ex-boyfriend to drive and they take a journey up the pacific coast and, also, memory lane. After a few detours, roadblocks, encounters with strangers, and weird tension between exes, Ali realizes that this journey is leading her to an unknown truth about her father that makes her realize that some things are maybe worth saving.

What to Do

1. Explore a new city

A beautiful thing about Geminis is their ability to bring the fun no matter where they are or what situation they’re in. Touching down in a city you’ve never been to before is great for meeting new people, seeing new sights, and adding something new to your everyday life. This sign may come off as restless or flighty, but they are just easily excited by things that they’ve never experienced before and always looking forward to exploring new things.

 

2. Attend a speed dating event

If there is one sign that loves to chit-chat, it’s the one ruled by Mercury. Because this planet—the planet of communication—rules Geminis, they know how to talk it up like no other! A speed dating event blends two of Gemini’s best traits: talking and not staying in one place for too long. This air sign is a natural floater, and this is an ideal outing that never feels boring and is the perfect opportunity to meet new people.

 

3. Go to an escape room

Looking to switch it up this upcoming season? An escape room is a fun and thrilling activity to do with friends. Geminis are very curious beings, and getting wrapped up in the tricks, twists, and turns of an escape room can be exciting and stimulating. If you go to an escape room this summer and you have a Gemini in your group, there is no doubt that you will be able to crack the case.
