The Curvy Girls Club: The hilarious romcom about best friends and muffin tops (Confidence is the New Black Book 1)
Where Confidence is the New Black
Meet best friends Pixie, Ellie, Katie and Jane. Fed up with always struggling to lose weight, they ditch the scales and start a social club where size doesn’t matter. Soon it’s the most popular place to be – having fun instead of counting calories – and the women find their lives changing in ways they never imagined.
But the club can't stop real life from mucking things up.
Sharing offices in a taxidermist’s garage with Pete the bear, together they've got to manage more than their new club – dodgy colleagues, a waste-of-space husband and sabotaged romance – while learning the most important lesson of all. In the Curvy Girls Club, confidence is the new black.
"This is a delightful book of friendship, acceptance, and belonging for anyone who has ever wondered: “What if?â€" Publishers Weekly
And spend time with the women again in the sequel, THE CURVY GIRLS BABY CLUB

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Gorman’s novel is a laugh-out-loud, heartwarming tale of four “curvy†friends who are sick of spending their time stressing over every bite of food, and who decide to take back control by organizing a social group they call “The Curvy Girls Club.†The heroine is Katie Winterbottom; prior to the formation of The Curvy Girls Club she spent her days cold calling pharmacies while working at a call center and also unsuccessfully lusting after a colleague. Her nights were occupied with attending weight-loss meetings and generally feeling bad about herself. That all begins to turn around after Katie and her three friends, Jane, Ellie, and Pixie decide to ditch the weight-loss meetings and start a social club, where feeling good about yourself and your curves is the main motto. However, once Katie begins to lose weight unexpectedly, she’s faced with the possibility of a drastic change to the life she’s made for herself. This is a delightful book of friendship, acceptance, and belonging for anyone who has ever wondered: “What if?â€
