Review – Thanks to NetGalley and Image Comics for the eGalley.

First let me say I am a big fan of Image Comics. I got into comics about 7 years ago when I met my husband and since then Image has always been one of my favorite imprints.

Supper Club is a super cute story with gorgeous artwork. The three main characters are all very different young women who are best friends. They come together with some other background friends to create a supper club as an afterschool club.

The friendship between the three girls seems very genuine to me. They rib each other and laugh together. They also lack the communication skills to deal with big life hurdles like anxiety and an ill parent. The main reason why I didn’t give this 5 stars is because there is no conflict resolution. The characters never tell each other about their various emotional distresses. Either we are supposed to assume that happened in the background or that they genuinely never talked which I find hard to believe.

I loved the celebration of the different cultural backgrounds of the characters and appreciated the cute recipes at the back of the collected comics. I would recommend this for young adults/teenagers. I definitely wish that I had had a supper club in high school, probably would have kept me out of some trouble!
