About this listen
Once in a while, everyone needs to be heard.
Freycinet Barnes has built herself the perfect existence. With beautiful children, a successful husband and a well-ordered schedule, it's a life so full she simply doesn't fit.
When she steps outside her calendar and is accidentally thrown into the generous bosom of the West Moonah Women's Choir, she finds music, laughter, friendship and a humming wellspring of rage. With the ready acceptance of the colourful choristers, Frey learns that voices can move mountains, fury can be kind and life can do with a bit of ruining.
Together, Frey and the choir sing their anger, they breathe it in and stitch it up, belt it out and spin it into a fierce, driving beat that will kick the system square in the balls, and possibly demolish them all.©2022 Meg Bignell (P)2022 Penguin Random House Australia

Fun yet poignant read
I thorough enjoyed this audiobook. It is beautifully read and the wonderful varying accents of the characters make them come to life. It showcases a contemporary world of parents juggling jobs and teenagers and marriage and friendships. We all need an Angry Women's Choir in our lives.

Join the chorus!
A wonderful tale beautifully read by the author. I went along on every part of the choir’s journey to the end. Having visited Hobart a number of times, I travelled around and provided my own pictures of the settings.
I will be looking out for more Meg Bignell titles in the future.

A great performance and strong story
A story that deals sensitively with a range of social issues, including DV (coercion) and disordered eating. Meg reads is brilliantly and entertains us with singing as well as a fab Irish accent for Busy.
I felt conflicted by Frey’s character. Weaving between liking her, feeling inspired and in awe of her and then hating her. I think the last couple of chapters were my least favourite which is why I gave it a 4. A great read if you want to be entertained by an eclectic group of women fighting for women’s rights in a haphazard manner in Hobart.

Fun
This was a fun read that had me laughing and also in tears. Some serious topics addressed and even though every aspect of the story did not fully work for me - overall it was a good read. Also it is worth the credit for the five songs at the end.

Daring to dream!
This is a brilliant read! Loved it! Feminist literature of the 21st century, and I suspect it could almost read as an allegory of our recent history. This book captured my heart in so many ways. The music was fantastic. I loved the complexity of the characters in both their brilliance and their flaws.
