Seeing Other People

Diana Reid

3.55 AVERAGE


I've grown quite fond of stories set in Sydney, especially since I consider this beautiful city home, and being able to relate to a story so easily, even if it's not a life I've lived.
Seeing other people is a raw look int the relationship of two sisters and their desperate attempt to love one another & themselves (and get it really wrong).

Such an easy read, hence the 4 stars and a great story with great characters.

that last chapter pissed me off

I love unlikeable characters

I loved this and found it so easy and nice to read. I love Sydney books and I love books about sisters. This was just excellent.

Loved this book! I saw some of the worst, petty parts of myself in these characters, but without it being judgemental or righteous. It was beautifully written and I also loved how naturally queer relationships were woven in.

It has mixed reviews but I liked it.
It is kind of a chronological novel, but it focuses more on the characters - their thoughts and feelings.
So not a crazy amount happens, but you get to know the characters really well.
However I am not satisfied with the ending - I feel like to undoes so much of the characters growth.
