Story
The film Rabbit-Proof Fence is based on this true account of Doris Pilkington's mother, Molly, who as a young girl led her two sisters on an extraordinary 1,600 kilometre walk home. Under Western Australia's invidious removal policy of the 1930s, the girls were taken from their Aboriginal families at Jigalong on the edge of the Little Sandy Desert, and transported halfway across the state to the Native Settlement at Moore River, north of Perth. Here Aboriginal children were instructed in the ways of white society and forbidden to speak their native tongue.

Story
For ten years a man calling himself Will Power lived in near-total isolation in northern New South Wales, foraging for food, eating bats and occasionally trading for produce. But who was this mysterious man who roamed the forest and knew all of its secrets and riddles? Some people thought he might be Jesus. Others feared he was a more sinister figure. The truth was that he was neither miraculous nor malevolent, but he was, most certainly, gifted.

Story
Celie has grown up poor in rural Georgia, despised by society and abused by her own family. She strives to protect her sister, Nettie, from a similar fate, and while Nettie escapes to a new life as a missionary in Africa, Celie is left behind without her best friend and confidante, married off to an older suitor, and sentenced to a life alone with a harsh and brutal husband. In an attempt to transcend a life that often seems too much to bear, Celie begins writing letters to God. The letters, spanning 20 years, record a journey of self-discovery and empowerment guided by the light of a few strong women.

Publisher's Summary
Pirriwee Public is a beautiful little beachside primary school where children are taught that 'sharing is caring.' So how has the annual School Trivia Night ended in full-blown riot? Sirens are wailing. People are screaming. The principal is mortified.
And one parent is dead.
Was it a murder, a tragic accident or just good parents gone bad? As the parents at Pirriwee Public are about to discover, sometimes it's the little lies that turn out to be the most lethal. Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, school-yard scandal, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves just to survive.

Earphones comfy? Go!!
I could barely put this down. I vacuumed, washed dishes, walked the dog, cleaned the pool, ironed all while listening to this book. I was enthralled with Liane Moriarty's characters and her style of writing. Do yourself a favour and have a listen, you won't regret it.

so entertaining!
what a wonderful wonderful story! the author has captured the dialogue of privileged white women in Australia and their precious children perfectly. I recognised aspects of myself in the story and had to laugh and laugh. She also has tried harder this time to tackle the serious issues that face women. But she can't help but make it politically correct and include the 0.001 percent of men who might face similar situations. The actress brought all of the characters to life and did a fantastic job well done. I thoroughly have enjoyed the journey of the novel. I look forward to watching the movie.

Overly expressive narrator.
The narrator reads the wrong expressions for the story and contexts. It’s hard to listen to and makes a good story less enjoyable.

Pity about the narrator
I found story absolutely captivating, however I found the narration by Caroline Lee to be lacklusture and a misrepresentation of the story. Her intonations were often incorrect and I found her character voices to be whiny and a similar voice for each character.
Luckily I could see through the reading and see how good the story actually was.

A monotonous boring listen
I kept waiting for something to happen. You could literally remove 50 chapters from this book, yes 50 as there are over 80 and still not be entertained. The story was predictable and like listening to a whining mothers group with no life. Big thumbs down from me.

Narration irritating, book amazing!
This story is perfection as it weaves its tale, that's if you can stand the narration.
I grimaced often and even left the book after the first chapter because of it.
A good friend told me to persevere and I'm glad I did.
This book would be one you couldn't put down but as an audiobook, this narration is so annoying you can't wait to turn off!
