Vivian Rising (2010)
When Vivian's grandmother dies, her world is knocked off kilter. Grams raised her, after her flaky mother took off. Then Vivian also loses her job while sitting shiva (a Jewish mourning ritual). Viv turns to an astrologer called Kavia who seems to give her the perfect advice to cope, including to avoid a train that later crashes and that she'll meet a man. That man it seems is the neighbour's son Len, who is in town to care for his ailing father. But when Kavia tells Viv that the stars predict her relationship with Len is only temporary, she has to work out which one to put her faith in. This is an often funny novel with lots of introspection as Viv comes to terms with her grief and move on with her future.
