Cumbria Girly Book Club

This is a friendly, brand new book club for ladies in Cumbria. The club is inspired by by The London Girly Book Club (although not an official branch). It’s a club for female fiction lovers to gather to discuss interesting books and, just as importantly, have a good giggle – often cocktails, wine or cake are involved.
