Sagittarius, born between November 22 and December 21, is a fire sign known for thriving on new experiences, unexpected journeys, and the thrill of discovery. Represented by the archer (a half-man, half-horse centaur), Sagittarius isn't afraid to use its bow and arrow to explore expansive terrain, seeking answers in places and spaces others wouldn’t dare venture. Whether they're white water rafting down a river in some undisclosed location or taking a pilgrimage to a sacred site to uncover secrets about an ancient civilization, Sagittarius’ quest for knowledge knows no bounds.

Here are some of book suggestions for our adventurous friends:

Nightbitch by Rachel Yoder

In this blazingly smart and voracious debut novel, an artist turned stay-at-home mom becomes convinced she's turning into a dog.

  • One astrologer noted that the centaur was the perfect symbol for Sagittarians, as it captures both their intelligent side and primal instincts. If that combination sounds enticing to you (plus you love horror, gore, and ripping apart the patriarchy), check out Rachel Yoder's Nightbitch.

Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson by Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson was a prolific writer and yet, with the exception of four poems in a limited regional volume, her poems were never published during her lifetime. It was indeed fortunate that her sister discovered the poems—all loosely bound in bundles—shortly after Dickinson died. Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson is the complete collection of the first three volumes of poetry published posthumously in 1890, 1891, and 1896 by editors Mary Loomis Todd and Thomas Wentworth Higginson.

  • A Sagittarius list would be incomplete without reference to Emily Dickinson, one of the more famous Sagittarians.

Vagabonds! by Eloghosa Osunde

A powerful debut novel about the power of love and stories to save people shunned by society for being themselves. The tale is told in interconnected short stories held together by a chorus of “monitoring spirits” who gather the stories of the people of Lagos and deliver them to the "cityspirit," Èkó.

  • Sagittarius, this novel will speak to your vagabond heart. 

To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara

Yanagihara's (A Little Life) much-anticipated third novel explores love, regret, and the inextricable bonds of family, set against a richly imagined alternate historical backdrop. The novel is composed of three parts, with stories set in 1893, 1993, and 2093 and located in New York City and Hawai'i.

  • Sagittarius, this bold, inventive novel spans three centuries of American past, present, and future to bring you stories of people making sacrifices to protect the ones they love.

Mercury Pictures Presents by Anthony Marra

The epic tale of a brilliant woman who must reinvent herself to survive, moving from Mussolini's Italy to 1940s Los Angeles--a timeless story of love, deceit, and sacrifice from the award-winning author of A Constellation of Vital Phenomena.

  • Sagittarius, you’re a traveler who knows no borders, and Marra’s recent novel about immigrants making Hollywood films at the beginning of World War II will speak to your wanderer’s heart.
