Lesbian Book Club (Women Only)

What this is
A relaxed Sunday afternoon book club for lesbian and bisexual women, meeting in person.

Come along and find out what we're reading. Once you've been, we'll add you to the WhatsApp group so you can keep track of what's next.

Women usually range from their 20s through to their 60s. Most sessions are a genuine mix of new faces and returning women, so you won’t be the only person coming for the first time.

Most people come on their own. That’s normal here, and we make sure you don’t feel it. Hosts introduce people, keep things flowing, and make the space feel easy rather than awkward.

If you’re feeling nervous, you won’t be the only one. Many women feel that way before their first book club and end up staying longer than they expected.

Current book club format
Come to your first book club event to find out what we're reading, after we'll add you to the Whatsapp group so you can keep track.

Bring along whatever you're currently reading, have recently finished, or are thinking about reading next.

No preparation needed. Come whether you've read a lot recently or not. Listening, chatting, and discovering new books is just as welcome as discussing one you've loved.

Important
This is a female-only lesbian space.
That boundary is clear and upheld at events.
If that doesn’t work for you, this won’t be the right event.

Arriving and support

If you’re nervous, arriving alone, can’t find us, or have any difficulty at all, you can message at any point – days before, on the day, or during the event.
If it helps, we can have someone come outside to meet you.

Contact
WhatsApp only: +44 7707 258332
This is the L Community number. Normal calls and text messages will not reach us.
You can message any time, but it is only monitored by our volunteers Monday to Friday 9am to 1pm and Saturday 10am to 2pm, so please message in advance if you need something for the day of an event.

Staying connected
Registering for an event is separate from joining the wider community.
If you’d like to stay connected between events, access the private WhatsApp group, and join the wider network, you can register here:
