Welcome to the Lubbock Ladies Book Club! Founded in October 2019, this club started as a Meetup group and has since evolved into a close-knit, supportive community for women who share a love of reading. We gather once a month to discuss books, connect with fellow readers, and enjoy meaningful conversations in a relaxed atmosphere.
Our meetings are held on Saturdays at Market Street (4205 98th Street, Lubbock, TX 79423), in the dining area. Whether you’re a lifelong bookworm or just looking to get back into reading, we invite you to join us! Please note that membership sign-up is required to attend our meetings.
The Lubbock Ladies Book Club is more than just a book club – it’s a space where friendships are made, ideas are shared, and women empower each other through the joy of reading.
