Excellent addition to my food novels reading this year! Lots of interesting thoughts on female friendships and the main characters dysfunctional relationships with people - but I feel like it could have gone further with it somehow? I didn't feel like I really knew the other supper club members.

I had really high hopes for this. Not really about the Supper Club itself as the title suggests but mainly about Roberta and the super annoying people around her.

I’m really enjoying the female rage imbuing so much contemporary fiction. Here, Williams howls loudly about a woman’s place, what we hunger for and the space/s we occupy. I enjoyed every delicious morsel. The premise is two friends start a secret club where members gorge on food, drugs and dancing. The food writing is spectacular. This book will not be for everyone but I feel completely sated.

books like this one make my head hurt. hard to read, hard to comprehend, hard to digest (pun intended)
i’ve seen tumblr posts more coherent than this.
