Hannah is the daughter of two professors and until now has
always followed their life plan for her.
When her boyfriend breaks up with her shortly after they move in
together, Hannah starts to break away from the path that was set for her. Her dream has always been to cook, so she
launches an underground supper club with the help of a friend. The problem is supper clubs aren’t 100% legal
and her new landlord has political aspirations that include shutting down supper
clubs just like the one Hannah’s running from his house without his knowledge.
The Girls’ Guide to Love and Supper Clubs was super-cute,
but I hated that Hannah never really experienced any consequences for her
outrageous behavior (and not just with the not-so-legal supper club; Hannah
also curses at her employer’s human resources officer while impulsively
quitting her job). The lack of consequences
made the ending to Dana Bate’s debut far too uncomplicated for it to satisfy
the tension that had been building to that point.
4/5
