Story
Gundagai, 1852. The powerful Murrumbidgee River surges through town leaving death and destruction in its wake. It is a stark reminder that while the river can give life, it can just as easily take it away. Wagadhaany is one of the lucky ones. She survives. But is her life now better than the fate she escaped? Forced to move away from her miyagan, she walks through each day with no trace of dance in her step, her broken heart forever calling her back home to Gundagai.

In this intimately fierce, funny and reflective audiobook, Sarago retraces her footsteps as a beauty assistant, model and magazine editor to find the answers she’s searching for.

Story
August, 1944. Over a thousand Japanese soldiers attempt to break out of a prisoner of war compound near Cowra. In the carnage, hundreds are killed, many are recaptured and imprisoned, and some take their own lives rather than suffer the humiliation of ongoing defeat. But one soldier, Hiroshi, determined to avoid either fate, manages to escape.... At nearby Erambie Aboriginal mission, Banjo Williams, father of nine and proud man of his community, discovers a distraught Hiroshi pleading for help.

Story
All women want to kill their husbands some of the time. "Where there's a will, I intend to be in it", wives half-joke to each other. Marriage, it would appear, is a fun-packed frivolous hobby, only occasionally resulting in death. But when Jazz Jardine is arrested for her husband's murder, the joke falls flat. Life should begin at 40, but not with life imprisonment for killing your spouse.

Story
This is the story of one of Australia's first true heroes Pemulwuy. A proud and feared Aboriginal warrior, Pemulwuy leads an uncompromising twelve-year war against British colonial oppression and makes the supreme sacrifice in order to guide his people to safety. Most histories of Australia start with the First Fleet and the hard times the colonists had with the climate and unruly convicts. Very few mention what really happened or the blood that was spilled in the wars never spoken of.

A beautiful, humbling insight into Aboriginal culture
- By Amazon Customer on 03-07-2023
Publisher's Summary
Five women, best friends for decades, meet once a month to talk about books...and life, love and the jagged bits in between. Dissecting each other's lives seems the most natural thing in the world - and honesty, no matter how brutal, is something they treasure. But each woman harbours a complex secret, and one weekend, without warning, everything comes unstuck.
Izzy has to make a decision that will change everything whilst Veronica, recently divorced and dedicated to raising the best sons in the world, has forgotten who she is. Xanthe, desperate for a baby, can think of nothing else, even at the expense of her marriage.
When their circle begins to fracture, is their sense of sisterhood enough to keep it intact? How well do these tiddas really know each other?

oh my heart..
loved it. Loves how it's 40 year olds, and enjoyed where they are in life. Learning about culture too. Narration was smooth and wonderful, would have liked better demarcation of the characters, similar to chapter headings.

generic
I was blown away by Anita Heiss' beautiful Bila Yarrudhanggalangdhuray and was looking for more of the same from Tiddas.
Sadly, Tiddas was just so generic. The characters were cliche and had no depth. I felt like I was listening to an episode of sex and the city.
I really struggled to finish it. the last chapter was so rushed and there was no satisfaction in the end.

Book club pick
This was picked by my book club, not a story I would ever normally pick but I gave it a go, the characters were all pretty boring and very similar, nothing much happens apart from one woman trying for a baby another having one and one realises she’s an alcoholic. All the men are rubbish characters also. Definitely not my kind of book.
