Welcome to Reading for Attention, a weekly podcast where we - bezzy mates Paul and Sarah - ‘discuss’ newly-released books, laugh at our own jokes and overuse the words ‘clever’ and ‘interesting’. This podcast is made for people who like reading on the train, in café windows, sometimes even aloud.Each week we’ll let you know the book we’ve chosen and, more importantly, which drink we think pairs nicely with the prose (which is a fancy way of saying – we want to get a bit pissed and feel really intellectual whilst we do). Make sure to tune in every Friday for some gossip, lols and lots of attention seeking. Oh, and a bit of book chat too if you’re lucky.If you have any requests, complaints, pictures of people reading for attention or messages of adoration send them to us at readingforattention@gmail.com or head to our Instagram @Readingforattention.

The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida by Shehan Karunatilaka with a 7&7

Why hello Jane! We're back and better(ish) than ever! We've read the 2022 BOOKER PRIZE WINNER this week, Shehan Karunatilaka's The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida. And, wow, do we have a lot of thoughts on it. Espesh Saz.

We wash* it down with a 7&7 OC style baybay. Delish.

Then we chat our usual swivel, and my god aren't you happy to hear it? We cover ear infections, BLACKPINK, Aftersun, Aftersun, Charlotte, work Christmas parties, Serena William - THE YOOZJH.

LOVE YOU, YOU NAUGHTY LITTLE ELVES. (Petition for elf bar to do a Christmas range? Sorry, that's genius. They're litchurally already halfway there with the name alone.) We promise to be here next week. In the meantime, pay us a compliment on insta @readingforattention. We're feeling needy.

*Sarah took a method approach and, like Ryan Attwood, doesn't have a 7&7. Him because he was under 21, her because she's her.
