⭐️ 4 ⭐️

At the Table is an excellent debut novel, beautifully written by Claire Powell.

Set over a year — each chapter of this character-driven, family drama revolves around a meal or drinks.

The character development in particular is excellent — we get to know the four members of the Maguire family (warts and all), their family dynamics and relationships with each other (and others).

Overall, a really enjoyable, immersive read.

Many thanks to the publisher for the proof copy, in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.
