Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC!

A nice, slice of life, cozy story about a group of friends in school. I like the idea of people bonding over something, especially food, and it feels like a fresh idea for a group of high schoolers to connect over. I wish I had something similar growing up!

This cute comic by Jackie Morrow is entertaining and enjoyable. The characters in Supper Club are high school seniors who want to spend the most amount of time together as possible before they graduate. The girls cannot agree on whether to get involved with sports or a school club so they invent the supper club for themselves only. At each meeting they are supposed to bring one dish to share with everyone else. Nora has taken the lead for the group but they alternate meeting at each other's homes.

The publisher's summary: Nora, Lili, and Iris are seniors at Seaside High. Their differing schedules and mounting extracurriculars inspire the girls to form a secret club where they can hang without sacrificing their future aspirations. Enter Supper Club, the delicious solution to their problems. When life starts to crumble like a cookie under the girls' feet, they rely on comfort food to hold it together. Can Supper Club endure life's most challenging recipes without burning to a crisp?

The characters in this story are believable. They accurately portray how high school seniors behave and the dialogue between them is spot on. Each of them has the usual parental issues to deal with. Some do a better job than others. What the adult reader gets is a trip down memory lane. My own school experiences matched what Nora, Iris and Lili experienced. The comic strip panels were colored with primary colors and I love how the author showed their hair flying in the air when they were frazzled.

I received a free copy of the book by Net Galley in exchange for an honest review. I am happy to say Supper Club is a fantastic read.

One of the sweetest stories of friendships falling apart and coming together that I’ve read in ages. The art is fun and dynamic, portraying youthful silliness and high drama with equal grace. Also, recipes!
