I really like a book on the importance of friendship and how food deeply connects people. The three girls at the centre of this story are distinct, and each experience pretty relatable teenage life events as they learn how they fit into each other's lives and how they may be approaching an uncertain future. The art style of this graphic novel absolutely worked for me.

However, I found that we moved on too quickly from certain emotional beats. And without spoiling it, the part that didn't work at all for me is how Iris's storyline is resolved, especially her friends' reaction. The graphic novel probably could have been expanded to give certain storylines more room to breathe.

A nice little graphic novel about high school friendships, and the challenges that come with the final year before graduation. I would have liked a bit more food content, but the cooking montages and recipe pages were really great. A good match for indie teens - those not sure who their people are.

This is a really great book. I’m obsessed with the character design and the art is so eye-catching and expressive. The stories are both exciting/funny and cozy/thoughtful. The Supper Club members are adorable and relatable. But then the RECIPES?? And the CONCEPT ART?? MY HEART!!

this was a great concept I just wish there would have been more of the actual supper club! we only really had like 4 of the club meetings and the GN was meant to take place over the entirety of their senior year.

The art style wasn't my favorite but it was still cute!

one thing that really annoyed me was <spoiler> when Iris was apologizing to Nora and explaining how her dad was sick Nora just laughed at the cookies and disregarded her crying friend. </spoiler>

overall a cute graphic novel!

thank you to Netgalley, Image Comics and Jackie Morrow for a a digital copy in exchange for an honest review!

Nora, Lili and Iris have one year of high school left before they go off to college. In order to make the most of their time, they create something they call ‘Supper Club’ – a dedicated time for them to eat, drink and be merry together. But as the year progresses and each girl finds themselves busy facing new obstacles, will their time at Supper Club strengthen their bonds or just become a nice idea they once tried?

Supper Club was a joyous read. Full of sumptuous food and a healthy glug of friendship, paired with beautiful illustrations. It was a quick, simple read, but perfectly paced and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The recipes at the end were a lovely touch too.

Overall, Supper Club is a perfect cosy read that celebrates the power food has to bring people together.

*Marked 3 stars but more of a 3.5*

The biggest takeaway I had from this cute little story is that I wish I had friends that would bake with me 😊

The art style of the comic is very cute, and a fun time to read, it fits the vibe of the story perfectly. I loved seeing all the different foods (which look so much better than in real life- why is that?), and it is a cute little slice of life to follow. However it does contain a few big themes (e.g family illness, anxiety and panic attacks) which i would say didn't have much of a resolution but for a middle grade book it included very good representation.

The ending frustrated me a little because I don't think Iris did anything wrong lol. (but that's a personal opinion)

Supper club is a foodies' delight. A food-themed story about three pals who desperately trying to remain friends and enjoy life before graduation while dealing with life's stresses and their own secrets and insecurities.

The movement captured in the artwork was mouth-wateringly good although i did get lost at times as the story jumped around from person to person and slid from one event to the next. Maybe its my lack of experience with the graphic novel but i found the jumble of stories and events a little convoluted in places and it affected my understanding on the plot and its characters.

Regardless, i'd read it again, this novel is basically food porn, and the recipes included in the final pages felt like a treat after finishing the book.

This was a very nice slice-of-life teen graphic novel.

I really liked the food aspect of this book, they addressed a lot of different dishes and cultures (and recipes for the dishes mentioned are included in the back!!) but it felt a little sidelined later in the novel. I wish we'd seen more interactions of the supper club actually in action as well - aside from the initial scene, this was shown mostly in montages.

I feel as though this book could've benefitted from being longer, it feels like we don't have sufficient time to cover the three main girls' storylines and wrap them up in a satisfying way by the conclusion. For quick read though, I had a good time - I'd recommend it to anyone a fan of Raina Telgeimer's work.

I found the premise for supper club very appealing. It focuses on the friendship of a group of girls during their final year of high school as they form what they call "Supper Club".

The art-style of the novel is visually pleasing and vibrant and found the characters to be diverse and likeable.

Unfortunately the book just didn't seem to quite find its feet, jumping between plot-points in a way that at times made it hard to follow and trivialises what are actually very hard topics.

The book's cover and description also suggested that "Supper Club" would be central to the book, however it reads more as a sub-plot with few scenes really showing how it brings the girls together and instead is used to create friction within the friendships.

Overall, it was a enjoyable and quick read with vibrant illustrations.

Supper Club blends friendship, family, and food in a delightful way. The club is Nora, Lili, and Iris’ way of keeping their friendship close despite demanding schedules. Their last year of high school has these girls juggling their extra curricular activities and making time for each other. This is a common struggle for teens as growing up sometimes means growing apart. I enjoyed the way the club food drew in family memories and shared those among the friends. After a strong introduction, the supper club seems to be a secondary plot line but it is featured prominently as part of the resolution. Overall, this was an enjoyable read that shows the power of food to unite and to heal.

A gorgeous graphic novel for foodie fans everywhere. I loved the illustrations, the final year frustrations, and most of all the friendships between the three main characters. A really gorgeous read.

I adored this lovely coming of age graphic novel that focused on friendship and food. The artwork and dialog provided a beautiful look at the bonds of friendship during periods of change and how food has the power to bring people together. I love how the story used food as an avenue to build connections and provide a safe haven for these girls. The story was beautiful and the art was amazing!

This was a sweet coming of age story about the last year of high school for 3 friends. They wanted to spend time together, and started the Supper Club so that they could spend time together with free food. The art was fun, and all 3 teens had more going on at home. It made for a compelling story.

This is a sweet and funny book about growing pains, friendship, and good food. I loved the dynamics of the friend trio. Being a teenager is hard, and keeping up with your friendships is even harder, especially as high school seniors when many students are preparing to graduate and head off to college and that next chapter in life. I thought it was creative how Nora came up with the Supper Club idea to keep their relationships intact during the school year.

It is an emotional read as we see each girl dealing with her own problems throughout the school year. They are each facing difficulties and obstacles in their lives, but they help each other navigate these rocky times. Even when they bicker and fight with each other, they always seem to come together because they honor and respect their sacred friendships. It was lovely to watch unfold during the story.

I wished there were more food or cooking scenes, but what we did get was amazing. The illustrations were very appealing and engaging. I also liked this style of graphics because, at times, it almost looked like rough sketches of a storyboard, but then in the next panel, we’d see the beautiful completed graphics. Some people may not like this type of artwork, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also appreciated the recipes included at the end of the book. That was a nice touch.

This quick and easy read will make you hungry and give you all the warm feels. Definitely recommend it!

Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. These are my own thoughts and opinions.

Supper Club is not only really good but really emotional. I enjoy every second of it and it really hit me in the feels.
Lili, Iris and Nora each have their own struggles and they have to juggle all of their problems, school and Supper Club. It's really beautiful to see it unfold

I received a temporary digital Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I expected a variety of shorter stories with food being a big highlight. What I ended up reading was much more profound, but still with a love of food. The story centers on three friends in their senior year of high school wanting to remain connected despite their many responsibilities and schedules that come with a new school year. Thus they create a supper club to share a potluck meal together with food that means something to the person who brought it and wanted to share that experience with others. The reader sees how each friend navigates through their year as individuals and as a group and how they decide to deal with the obstacles along the way. Think Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants but with food.

Well somewhat with food. For a book about an after school club about food for food lovers, I hoped there was more food or more recipes. Some of the best scenes involved food! For example, one of the friends teaches her friends how to make rainbow cookies. The scene is instructional but also engaging and well-drawn that it is a fun way to share a recipe with readers as well as the characters in the story. Another scene is taking frustration out on the mafongo and that the act of cooking can be therapeutic. I just wish there was more.

Overall the story was great, the characters were fully dimensional and easy to empathize with, and the drawing was beautiful, especially in the depiction of anxiety and depression. I would love to use this book as a way to show others how people experience anxiety or feel grief because sometimes it is hard to describe abstract emotions with words alone. The panel with the different outlines depicting an out-of-body experience of the character's anxiety attack was extremely relatable to me, personally!

I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

Supper Club is a graphic novel about a group of teenage friends who no longer have classes where they're all together and decide to form a supper club. This was a sweet and cosy read but didn't really take off like I'd hoped. The illustrations are fun and befit the book style very well. I loved that there were recipes included in the back of this book, though! Overall, it is a light, chilled read that is perfect for a wet and miserable day outside to cosy up with and relax.

this book was cute, light, and illustrated beautifully but fell flat in the plot department. the pacing was kind of all over the place and a lot of plot points felt unresolved and open-ended. additionally, based on the description i thought that food would be a little more significant in the story but rather the cooking/eating scenes didn't contribute much. however, i really enjoyed the inclusion of recipes at the end of the book and the characters, while not super well-developed, were at least nuanced and had distinct personalities.

A sweet and moving story about family, friendship, and the warmth of sharing a meal and the memories that will stay with us forever with food.

cute comic cantered around friendship.

the art style is cute and great for the target audience, but i don’t think i was particularly the right demographic but i always love reading an easy to read graphic novel.
