Emily Forrest runs Exalted, the hottest astrology account on Instagram, from her studio apartment in Los Angeles. Burned out on meme-making & listicles, Emily’s passion for astrology is waning despite her gift for deciphering the signs, until she comes across a birth-chart that could potentially change her mind. Beau Rubidoux’s planets are aligned, each paired with its optimum sign—his chart is exalted. She decides that Beau, a well-connected photographer in Echo Park, could potentially be the love of her life & help her fulfill her true destiny: to be a star.   Meanwhile in Riverside, Dawn Webster has been dumped once again. At 48, she is forced to return to the same restaurant where she started waiting tables at 18. With no girlfriend, no career, & her only son gone to Hollywood, the once-vivacious Dawn is aimless & alone. Persona non-grata at the local gay bar, she guzzles cheap champagne & checks Exalted to feel seen. She is a fiery Leo, & one day she will get her due.Alternating between Emily & Dawn's very different points of view, Exalted is a deliciously dark novel that explores desire, the projection of our need for love, & what we're really searching for when we keep scrolling. Anna Dorn's signature wit & biting social commentary takes readers across Southern California until Emily & Dawn's shocking connection is finally revealed. – barnesandnoble.com°°°Anna Dorn is a writer living in Los Angeles.
