This is my second Keiler Roberts book, and I loved the realism and syncopation of the dialogue here even more than the first book I read.

I loved this so much. The comic is filled with pretty mundane moments which I immediately loved as they include Keiler Roberts’ deadpan humour.

I’m biased, having taken a comics course from her, but she’s really great at beautifully drawing her every day experience. I truly enjoy her deadpan humor and laughed audibly at some of the stories.

No cartoonist, living or dead, captures better facial expressions than Keiler.

I loved how Roberts continues to show the small moments of joy and humor, even amidst the pandemic. It made me realize how even though everything around us shifted, we really didn't change. I'm grateful for that grounding, and the many times I laughed to tears while reading this book.

i love keiler roberts's works so i was really looking forward to read this one!!!
just like the rest of her works, this also captures her everyday life - like a visual diary of some sorts of family and reality.
i just love how honest and raw everything is but wished its more on a funnier side which is why i fell in love with her stories in the first place. this one felt more towards the mundane but definitely could be relatable to some.
i feel that it might take awhile for readers to get used to her style but im glad that i was able to engage & enjoy ✨

juannaranjo's review against another edition
Como en «Isolada», aquella extraña joya que giraba en torno de la extrañeza de lo cotidiano, Keiler Roberts vuelve a conseguir en «Mi tabla de súplicas» una colección de tiras que fluctúan entre lo cómico y lo grotesco, entre lo extraño y lo ordinario.
En las viñetas de esta autora encontramos, sobre todo, vida diaria. Roberts tiene un maravilloso ojo clínico para convertir en arte (un arte incómodo, raro, que se consume con una media sonrisa) nuestras miserias del día a día.
En este libro habla sobre la maternidad, la enfermedad, la salud mental, el matrimonio… y otros grandes asuntos de la literatura y de la vida, pero sin ningún interés por sublimarlos, centrándose solo en mostrarlos desde fuera para que podamos reflexionar sobre ellos.
No me canso de esta autora que pone al mundo ante un espejo. Quiero leer todo lo que publique.
