Tiddas is a book by Anita Heiss published in 2014. The title Tiddas is a Aboriginal term for "women who are like sisters".
The book is about five women who have been friends shince childhood who come together for book club meetings.
Reception
Dianne Dempsey of the Sydney Morning Herald comments "While Tiddas may at times have a didactic tone, it is this political subtext, the subversive nature of the book, that provides any interest or edge." Laura Brodnik of bmag says that "it’s also a love letter to the city of Brisbane. Lou Heinrich of lip states that it is "depicting urban Aboriginal women in an easily consumable book."
