But if you're talking to a bad-girl-or-bad-boy-wannabe who takes pride in being able to access and acknowledge their Shadow Self, let them know that this is an answer to their prayers.</p><p>Hyde is a self-proclaimed grudge-bearing Cancer who specializes in documenting evil twins around the astrological wheel. Her intention is to cut through the clutter of heart-warming advice and talk instead about the skeletons in the closet. Of course, I turned to my own sign (Taurus) first. I discovered that I harbor a rut-bound bully, am annoyingly punctual, am intolerant of anyone who doesn't squeeze the toothpaste tube from the bottom, and am prone to temper tantrums every six months to five years. Plus this: 'Possessive seems like too weak a word.' Okay, some of that hit dangerously close to home but the writing is so humorous that I laughed outloud instead of cringing. I also know enough about astrology to recognize that there's a fair amount of expertise behind this tongue-in-cheek roasting. Laughing at our idiosyncrasies isn't such a bad thing, especially when 11/12 of the book is wittily 'dis-ing everybody else. There's a good time to be had by all those who have even a little bit of a sense of humor."</p>--Anna Jedrziewski, Retailing Insight (formerly New Age Retailer)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Stella Hyde is the author of Darkside Zodiac, Darkside Zodiac at Work, and Snarling Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and has always felt that zodiac groupies get off too lightly. She thinks everyone should confront their evil twin. Hyde is a grudgebearing Cancer who resides in England.
