Estremamente interessante e approfondito， utile sia per chi ama l'astrologia sia per chi ama l'astronomia perché contiene tante informazioni sulle fasi lunari e le costellazioni。 A supporto dei vari argomenti ci sono delle illustrazioni così da rendere di più facile comprensione le cose a chi non ne ha dimestichezza。 Estremamente interessante e approfondito， utile sia per chi ama l'astrologia sia per chi ama l'astronomia perché contiene tante informazioni sulle fasi lunari e le costellazioni。 A supporto dei vari argomenti ci sono delle illustrazioni così da rendere di più facile comprensione le cose a chi non ne ha dimestichezza。 。。。more

I am unsure why but my ebook had so many poor quality photos which supposed to be pictures if stars where for me they all were a blur or gray squares。 I accessed on NetGalley app and had the same issue therefore I am unsure if this book is advised to be purchased on e-version and best to buy a hard copy maybe。I found information interesting， especially what is happening each month。 Lots of details yet very often I found myself lost and overwhelmed with the information。 I was hoping it would be a I am unsure why but my ebook had so many poor quality photos which supposed to be pictures if stars where for me they all were a blur or gray squares。 I accessed on NetGalley app and had the same issue therefore I am unsure if this book is advised to be purchased on e-version and best to buy a hard copy maybe。I found information interesting， especially what is happening each month。 Lots of details yet very often I found myself lost and overwhelmed with the information。 I was hoping it would be an interesting somewhat inspiring read but it was more factual and technical。Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for ARC opportunity。 。。。more

This is a book I see regularly and I always think how beautiful the cover art is， always being a little intimidated to pick it up because of how limited my knowledge of astronomy is。However， I have received a copy in return for an honest review and I can now say that I shouldn't have felt worried about reading it because while it is absolutely packed with information， it's also explained clearly and while I am in no way an expert after reading this， I now have a basic knowledge to grow from over This is a book I see regularly and I always think how beautiful the cover art is， always being a little intimidated to pick it up because of how limited my knowledge of astronomy is。However， I have received a copy in return for an honest review and I can now say that I shouldn't have felt worried about reading it because while it is absolutely packed with information， it's also explained clearly and while I am in no way an expert after reading this， I now have a basic knowledge to grow from over the next year as I follow various paths of things in the night sky。It also means I shall continue to buy further copies of this book each year。Thank you to Netgalley and Collins Astronomy。 。。。more

This compact book is full of month by month information about our sky at night。 The introduction explains it aims "to help people find their way around the night sky and to understand what is visible every month from anywhere in the world" and it definitely achieves this。 Along with lots of maps， diagrams and charts it illustrates and explains the many aspects of our night sky。 It highlights the major events in 2023 and explains where to go for the best dark sky sitesIt would make a wonderful an This compact book is full of month by month information about our sky at night。 The introduction explains it aims "to help people find their way around the night sky and to understand what is visible every month from anywhere in the world" and it definitely achieves this。 Along with lots of maps， diagrams and charts it illustrates and explains the many aspects of our night sky。 It highlights the major events in 2023 and explains where to go for the best dark sky sitesIt would make a wonderful annual gift for people who are fascinated by the sky at night。 Thanks to Net Galley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

This is an excellent guide to what to look out for in the night sky in 2023。 It is designed so that it can be used anywhere in the world， and would make a lovely gift for anyone with an interest。 I have an Earc and the constellation maps are unusable， but will probably get a print copy for next year。*Many thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for a review copy in exchange for an honest opinion。*

Every year I see this book come up on Netgalley and every year I request this and then go and find myself a physical version， as these impressive but compact books give us another guide to the stars for the year coming that always impresses me。 I appreciate everything they put into this book， the diagrams， the important dates， the incredible knowledge of the night skies they have to really make an interesting and informative book that really never stops giving you everything you need to know abo Every year I see this book come up on Netgalley and every year I request this and then go and find myself a physical version， as these impressive but compact books give us another guide to the stars for the year coming that always impresses me。 I appreciate everything they put into this book， the diagrams， the important dates， the incredible knowledge of the night skies they have to really make an interesting and informative book that really never stops giving you everything you need to know about the stars。 Going by month， this book gives us， sunrises and sunsets in major cities， moon phases and what you need to be looking out for。 I appreciate the language they use to explain everything and I appreciate how they highlight memorable moments of the planetary calendar and combine this with facts and history about space。 I just really appreciate these books when they come out and look forward to adding this purple copy to my collection so far！Thanks again for the ARC Netgalley and Collins Astronomy！ 。。。more

A really interesting book but the kindle copy is largely unusable as you cannot see the constellation maps or images properly。 A physical copy would be great though。
