An amazing story about finding true love, with a little help from astrology! Natasha leads a busy life, she struggles to find ‘the one’ and believes that the stars will help her find love.
I had a great time reading this book, the friendships, the family connections and the quirkiness-a wonderful journey of discovery. True love may be out there, it may be ruled by the stars, or it may appear when you least expect it. The way that Natasha endeavours to find her happiness is true to herself and a joy to unravel.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was an enchanting change from my usual true crime books. Natasha Sizlo writes about her crazy path to love, looking for men born on a certain date in Paris, just like her ex-boyfriend Phillipe. But this one will be her soulmate if she can find him. Her astrologer says so. Sad at points, also a funny and romantic memoir. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I'm not sure what I was expecting when I read Natasha Sizlo's "All Signs Point to Paris." Maybe I wanted a longer timeline, maybe some more explanation of how Natasha landed in this situation, maybe a bit more substance and opening up, or maybe just something less superficial. The majority of Natasha's adventure takes place in less than a year and for whatever reason, she didn't seem to be interested in explaining what led her to any of it, at least with any level of introspection.

When the story begins, Natasha is handling her father's imminent death and an ongoing torrid on-again-off-again relationship that she got into after her divorce several years before. We get a glimmer of her relationship with her father but nothing more than she seemed to have shared with nearly everyone she encountered at that time of her life. Similarly, we learn very little of her relationship with Philippe besides that it was messy and they wanted different things. In fact, besides her (unapologetically selfish) interactions with her friends and sister in Paris, we barely see into any of her relationships.

The book is also full of celebrity namedropping and privilege flaunting. Natasha's ex-husband's new wife is Anna Farris, she works for a real estate agency featured on a Bravo reality show, her friends also run in wealthy circles, etc. She briefly glosses over her life after her divorce and makes it seem like she is currently middle class but again, we get very little information on her life outside of what anyone who followed her on social media would have seen.

This book will easily be on many beach read and women's fiction lists this summer but I just couldn't bring myself to care about the author.

Three and a half stars for readability, an interesting story, and being a quick read.

Thanks to NetGalley and Mariner Books for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

It’s a story of one woman’s search for a second chance at love. Beautifully written, with such heart. Not only did it make me cry, it made me see the world in a different way. A beautiful and delightful book to read, one I really just wanted to spend my time reading and savoring the experience.

This Memoir is about Natasha's search for love and really herself after loss. This is a well written memoir, it flows nicely and is an easy story to read.
I definitely think that some people will love this book, unfortunately I am just not that person. I struggled to connect with the author, and with her story.

Thank you NetGalley and Mariner books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I liked this one. I thought some of it was cheesy about finding true love and the use of astrology to do so. But I liked Natasha and her story and how she learned more about herself during this journey. I also related to her in the loss of her father and how she coped with it.
I liked her adventures in Paris and the friends she made.
A sweet relatable story about love, life, family and friends and how they all intertwine to help us find our way.

Thanks NetGalley for this ARC!

All Signs Point to Paris by Natasha Sizlo is the true story of the author's search for her soulmate as dictated by her horoscope and her astrologer, who says she should look for a man born on a certain date in Paris and he will be the one. First of all, the book was well written. What I found interesting, was how did she find herself in the position she was in? She was married to a wealthy man and had two children, yet she bemoans the fact that she was in a small house with no money throughout the novel. This is the man who married Anna Faris after Chris Pratt, so didn't she get alimony and child support and wouldn't it have been substantial? In addition, she sold trendy real estate to the stars, so even with a 6% commission on these properties, she was making money. So her choice of what to do with her money is to spend it on a pricey astrologer and then fly to Paris for a week to look for her soulmate, then spend the entire time on her phone trying to meet up with men who were ghosting her? I'm sure that money would have been better spent in some other way. Then at the end to get nothing out of it? I found this novel to be pure frustration...stop making bad choices Natasha! Maybe get yourself together before you fly across the world to find your soulmate. Or look closer to home because finding a man in Paris is certainly going to create bigger problems, do you expect him to drop everything and move to LA? Talk about unrealistic goals.

Thank you to the author, Mariner Books and NetGalley for an ARC of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

I don’t read many memoirs and it’s not because I don’t like them. I love them. I am just a creature of habit with the genres I normally read. That being said, I am happy I decided to accept the publisher’s offer to read this one! Natasha Sizlo is divorced with kids and really wants to find her soulmate. Her ex-husband has moved on and it is now time for her to as well. She consults an astrologer to find out what she should be looking for in a soulmate and off she goes!

We follow Natasha to Paris with her sister Tara and friends as she searches for Mr. Right. She uses wit throughout and I surprisingly learned a lot about astrology! I have little knowledge of astrology and have heard terms being used like the 12 portions of the astrological chart called houses. I enjoyed that the most. Learning new things when I read is always a goal. I like how she used each of the 12 houses to begin each chapter and explained what they meant.

This may sound strange but I liked the acknowledgements as much as the story. By the end of the memoir I wanted to call up Natasha and ask her to coffee! That is how open and fun-loving she comes off as. What a fun, sweet soul she seems to be. A very rewarding read. Thank you to HarperCollins and NetGalley for an ARC of this book.

Overall I liked this book - it's a fun premise, and the writing is quite good. For me it lost a bit in the middle, mostly because the behavior of the group once they got to Paris. I live in Los Angeles and am familiar with the Westside, and forty-something divorced women, because I was one of them a decade ago. I've also been to France many, many times (30+) and just found it irritating that the time spent in Paris was all about looking down at phones. But maybe that's just me. Once the trip was over, I started liking the protagonist better. The trip seemed to help her find a better balance, and gain more self confidence. While I'm not big on astrology, I found myself interested in all the houses, and her explanation was good at the beginning of each chapter. So, mazel tov, Ms. Sizlo. If I run into you at the Starbucks or Mary's Kitchen in Malibu, I'll stop by your picnic table. I hope your book does well.

What an incredible book! I had started reading and then realized that this was non-fiction! (I guess I hadn’t paid that much attention.). What an astonishing journey Natasha has been on and I was happy to feel as if I was on the journey with her. I believe this is her first book and hope it’s not the last. From the beginning of the book I was hooked. I’ve signed up to follow her and can’t wait to see what happens next.

All Signs Point to Paris: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Destiny by Natasha Sizlo is en engaging, unique, and entertaining memoir that really drew me in.

This is a very unique and interesting memoir. Encompassing love, loss, fear, regret, hope, second chances, and yes….astrology…the author takes us along on her personal quest to follow up on a reading to find “The One”.

It was real, funny, serious, grounded, and ethereal all at once. Definitely one to remember.

4/5 stars

Thank you NG and Mariner Books for this wonderful arc and in return I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review and opinion.

I am posting this review to my GR and Bookbub accounts immediately and will post it to my Amazon, Instagram, and B&N accounts upon publication on 8/16/22.

All Signs Point to Paris is an intriguing memoir about Natasha Sizlo’s fantastical journey to find her soulmate. A broke divorcée who has recently lost her father, Natasha hears an astrology reading and heads to Paris to find a man born there on November 2, 1968.

With my head still in the clouds after binge-watching Emily in Paris, I quickly became invested in this romantic Parisian quest for love. I would have loved to have followed it in real time, as she documented the experience through social media. There were a few points where I’d forget I was reading a memoir and that’s not a bad thing. All I can say is that I hope every detail in this book is true, from the clouds parting during the funeral, to the Utah Jazz family van, and all of the beautiful “signs” from their dad that Natasha and her sister found while in Paris. It’s these little details that really create a rich connection for the reader.

I wasn’t particularly interested in the House notes, but I can see why others might be, as astrology plays a key role in the author’s experience.

By the time she begins her transformation with a haircut, I was dying to find her Instagram account, but I was determined to avoid spoilers. Now that I’ve finished the book, I already want to reread it with a highlighter. I think anyone that reads this will join me in rooting for Natasha. I know that she will get her happy ending.
