Book Description:

Spend time again with the women of The Curvy Girls Club - indulge yourself in the brand-new feel-good novella from the Sunday Times and USA Today bestselling author Michele Gorman

Life, love and a Christmas due date 

Ellie is fresh back from her honeymoon and can’t wait to share her news with her best friends Katie and Jane. To everyone’s surprise, mother-of-two Jane has news of her own… The women are due a day apart, on December 25th and 26th, and Katie can’t wait to be an honorary aunt to the babies.

But it’s hard to keep your sense of humor, not to mention your self-esteem, in the face of hemorrhoids and elasticated waistbands. Add a clingy mother-in-law, a career in cardiac arrest and a sex life that makes Mother Theresa look lusty, and soon their lives are as out of control as their bodies.

As the co-founders of The Curvy Girls Club, where loving yourself is the only rule, will the friends be able to practice what they preach?


My Book Review:

In The Curvy Girls Baby Club, best friends Ellie, Katie, and Jane are back with something special to share with each other: they are all pregnant!

Author Michele Gorman weaves a delightful sequel novella to The Curvy Girls Club that is filled with a feel good lighthearted storyline that follows the three best friends as they embark on a journey towards motherhood together. What could be better than to share the joys and trials and tribulations of sisterhood and pregnancies than with your best friends?!

This sweet little novella's storyline follows the three best friends' pregnancy journey towards motherhood. The reader will be captivated as they catch up with Ellie, Katie, and Jane, and how their strong bond of friendship continues as they provide support to each other. You can't help but love these three girls and cheer them on, there are lot of laughter, tears, and smiles throughout their journey. I loved that this novella continued the best friends' story as they embarked on the next phase of their lives, their story easily continues where The Curvy Girls Club left off, it flowed smoothly and left me with a warm fuzzy feeling and wanting more.

The Curvy Girls Baby Club is an enjoyable novella that embraces the strong bonds of friendship that will leave a smile on your face!


RATING: 5 STARS

Book Description:

A funny, heart-warming story about overcoming the prejudices we hold, no matter where we tip the scales.

The Curvy Girls Club is a hilarious and heart-warming story about learning to love yourself, written by best-selling author Michele Gorman.

Pixie, Ellie, Katie and Jane have been best friends since meeting at Slimming Zone. Tired of being judged by the number of calories they consume, they decide to form a different kind of club. The fun evenings they spend together, not worrying about their size, make them happier than they’ve been for years.

But the club doesn’t stop real life from getting in the way and together the girls have to address some much bigger issues than just their weight…

When the pounds start falling off Katie, founder and president of London’s most popular social club for the calorie-challenged, it seems like a dream come true. But as the overweight stigma recedes and her life starts to change, she faces losing more than the inches around her waist. Everything that’s important to her – her closest friends, boyfriend, and acceptance into the club itself – are at stake in a world where thin is the new fat.
