What do you think of it? Do you consider her a reliable source? Do you know of any authors that explain Astrology well?
I also own the Astrology Bible and I find that a good one as well. What do you think of either of these books?

I am into the 3rd copy of that book.
The first one mysteriously disappeared
The second one, was lent to a friend, who lent it to a friend, and I have never seen it since.
Linda is the Goddess of astrology, and for those who don't know her well, she passed away 12 years ago at the age of 70 from complications of diabetes, so there are no 'new books' for her.
I have read all of her books including Gooberz which is an enlightening read as well as an autobiograpy.
Her sun sign book written in the late' 60s was an instant best seller and the first of its kind at the time. She made astrology accessible to the public and everyone started getting into it big time.
Her popular Love Signs book written in '78 is a hefty volume, and although it may not contain all the traits of compatibility between the signs, it's quite an eye-opener. She is witty, observant, impartial and has a great sense of dry humour. She touches on sensitive compatibility possiibilities and makes it easy for every sign to get along with every other sign if they put enough effort into it.

Goodman's love signs is an entertaining read. She offers some nice anaologies of the love relationship.
I've not read Hall's Astrology Bible, but I am a big fan of the Astrologer's handbook by Sakoian and Acker. They also wrote a book on transits that is good. Robert Hand's book on transits is one of the best on the market yet today.
The best author I have ever read was Ivy Goldstein Jacobson, her books are out of print but can still be purchased. Her style of writing is similar to Goodman's, but all were written in the 50's.

I LOVE Linda Goodman! Yes, she is very reliable, read her other books, Sun Signs, Star Signs and Gooberz. Very good stuff. I don't have the Astrology Bible who wrote it?
More newer astrology sources are Dr. Louis Turi.

Ohhhh, i remember i spent $20 in total for Linda Goodman's Love Signs! best twenty dollars i ever spent honestly.
in terms of sun sign astrology, Goodman did a beautiful job! i believe she is the queen of sun sign astrology. i love the way she put some life into the vastly detailed descriptions of all the love matches between every possible combination of signs you can think of. i have it on my desk right now, and im looking at it lol. great book indeed :). i thank that book for the more knowledge it gave me as well.
p.s: i wonder if i can obtain the Astrology Bible! if i see it, il buy it.

Yeah I own Linda Goodman's Love Signs, Sun Signs and Relationship signs.
Her books are very easy to understand for those who are new to astrology. She also adds in some of her quirky sense of humour which is nice. Linda is quite thorough and includes real life ppl to help you understand the traits of a particular sign as well as many other things.
First she gives you information and personality traits of a particular sun sign. Then she does a compatibility section on every sign
(for example: Scorpio Male with ........
Scorpio Female with.......)
So she organizes the book according to gender as well as the sun signs so it's more accurate.

hi,
Yeh i have read Linda Goodman's book ''Love Signs'', And I suggest that it is utterly authentic because each sign described in this book is “related” to the twelve signs of the zodiac in a unlike and unequalled way. You can check out this book on the link below.

And for other books of ''Linda Goodman'' are also available on the link below:

Sun Signs and Love Signs are the best astrology books ever written.
