Don’t read this one on an empty stomach, as the food descriptions are absolutely sensational, the star of the book honestly. It’s very sad white girl lit but leans heavily into it - both the MC and the author seem aware of their privileges. It asks questions about how women can take up space, push back against their prescribed roles, and whether something is just a performance or having a true impact. Check the content warnings on it though, as it gets heavy, and maybe steer clear if you’re frustrated by self-destructive characters.

there’s so much to say here and i’m not entirely sure how to put it into words. the author really tries to bring home the ‘feminist’ aspect of the supper club but it falls really flat, and acts as though it’s saying something profound about weight when it’s not. parts of this story really shine and speak to the yearning women have to feel full, but for the most part it’s just kind of insulting and dare i say boring? an interesting premise but poorly executed in my opinion
