Sydney Morning Herald Best Young Australian Novelist 2022 SHORTLISTED for the INDIE AWARD for BEST FICTION SHORTLISTED for the ABIA for Literary Fiction LONGLISTED for the BookPeople Book of the Year for Fiction 'Diana Reid has such a way with language.' - Mamamia 'This! Was! So! Good! ... Diana Reid you are in a total league of your own.' - Zara McDonald, Shameless Podcast 'Seeing Other People will be the book of the summer.' - PedestrianTV 'An extraordinary new voice in Aussie lit.' - Zo??? Foster Blake 'a captivating read that feels made for racing through while lying on the beach.' - Vogue Australia Charlie's skin was stinging. Not with heat or sweat, but with that intense, body-defining self-consciousness-that sense of being watched. She lowered her eyes from Eleanor's loving gaze. Her throat taut with tears, she swallowed. 'You're a good sister, Eleanor.' 'Don't say that.' After two years of lockdowns, there's change in the air. Eleanor has just broken up with her boyfriend, Charlie's career as an actress is starting up again. They're finally ready to pursue their dreams-relationships, career, family-if only they can work out what it is they really want. When principles and desires clash, Eleanor and Charlie are forced to ask: where is the line between self-love and selfishness? In all their confusion, mistakes will be made and lies will be told as they reckon with the limits of their own self-awareness. Seeing Other People is the darkly funny story of two very different sisters, and the summer that stretches their relationship almost to breaking point. PRAISE FOR SEEING OTHER PEOPLE: 'a great summer read.' - The Guardian 'The prose sparkles on the page, as effervescent and drinkable as a glass of prosecco on a warm summer's evening.' - The Australian 'We absolutely adored this hotly-anticipated novel' - The Shameless Bookclub 'If you tore through Love & Virtue last year, you'll want to add Diana Reid's second novel to the top of your reading bucket list.' - Marie Claire 'I enjoyed this funny, charming and enormously readable novel a great deal, in large part due to the wit and authenticity with which Reid represents her characters and their world.' - The West Australian 'Reid hasn't lost her skewering wit.' - Sydney Morning Herald 'a compulsive read' - Primer 'funny and engaging' - ArtsHub 'Reid's witty and insightful social observation is something to relish' - ABC Radio National, The Bookshelf 'There is a genuine warmth as well as capacious intelligence and sly humour to Reid's writing, and a dynamic energy to the novel that's always compelling' - The Guardian 'This charming, insightful and clever follow-up to Love & Virtue is an immensely readable novel that explores the bonds of family, friendship and principle.' - Books + Publishing 'a story bathed in sisterhood and the oft complicated relationship sisters are forced to navigate.' - Russh 'if you're heading to the beach and need a light, funny read, this book will deliver that for you.' - The Canberra Times 'written in superb prose, this is the ultimate contemporary dramedy' - InStyle 'I love Diana Reid's writing and Seeing Other People hit the mark once again.' - Women's Agenda PRAISE FOR LOVE & VIRTUE: 'Loved it...It's electrifying' - Annabel Crabb 'a great read that will become an Australian classic' - Sydney Morning Herald 'an absolute cracker, Love & Virtue lobs right into the current moment with a clarifying light. I hope EVERYONE reads this book.' - Helen Garner, bestselling and award winning author of The First Stone and The Spare Room 'Diana Reid will be called the new Sally Rooney - you're certain of it by the end of page one. By the end of this real, raw and startling novel, you know Reid is the talent to whom every smart young novelist who follows her will be compared - or hope to be.' - Meg Mason, author of Sorrow and Bliss 'Love & Virtue is an accomplished novel - by turns funny and furious, and full of the plange
