It's great the guide for the bookclub sessions, I really enjoyed the questions and details about the book. It makes more manageable the advance and to read specially when you are moderator and need a follow up line.

The discussion questions were relevant to the book, easy to understand and they offer an opportunity for a deep discussion of the novel. The activities are relevant and useful for the reader. The writing tips offered are actually helpful.

These are very cute. They are vibrant, the questions make sense and really sets the theme for a book club meeting. Cute bookmarks. Like these a lot.

As someone who enjoys pairing a great read with thoughtful discussion, the Book Club Kit for By the Book by Jasmine Guillory is a gem! This beautifully designed and well-organized kit from We Are Bookish elevates the reading experience and makes book club planning effortless and engaging.
The kit includes everything a host could want: an insightful author interview, fun and creative discussion questions, themed menu suggestions, a custom playlist, and even a book-inspired activity. These elements helped spark a lively and thoughtful conversation during our book club meeting. This kit adds rich context and deeper connection to By the Book, a delightful Beauty and the Beast retelling with a publishing twist.
Highly recommend for book clubs, buddy reads, or even solo readers who want to enrich their experience. Thanks to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for providing this thoughtful resource!

I thought this was the full book at first, which was totally my mistake. I apologize for that! This book club kit is actually quite nice and useful. The bookmarks are super cute, and I loved the little pen name generator (mine came out as Michaela Benson it was so fun!). The writing advice included was very helpful, and the book itself sounds so interesting. I’d definitely love to read it once it’s released. Also The sparkling rose margarita sounds so lovely would definitely give it a try aswell. Board ideas were nice aswell.

I host a virtual book club and using this was fantastic for our meeting to make sure conversation flows well and encourage conversation. the discussion questions are super helpful for keeping the conversation going, It is so amazing that there is an interview with the author to help us understand all the authors ideas and reason behind the story.
the charcuterie board pages plus the drink recipe were such a cute touch and would be so great for an in person book club. this book club kit is seriously stunning. it’s laid out in such a clean, easy-to-use way and feels really thoughtfully put together. i feel like even if you were reading this book by yourself this would be a great tool to get you to dig deeper in your reviews and thoughts.
we have even used some of the recommendations provided for the next vote to choose next months read.

This review is for the book club kit, not the actual book. The book itself was good and I enjoyed it.

As a Disney fan, I was so excited to dive into Jasmine Guillory’s take on this story—and this book club kit made the experience even better! 💫
My friends and I had a blast with the discussion questions, but the pen name generator? Absolute favorite. 😂 I also loved the romance recs at the end—always here for fresh bookish inspo! This kit totally leveled up our reading experience. 💖📚🧜♀️

This is a great set for a book club! Amazing prompts to talk about the book. Definitely recommend if you want a fun book for your book club!

This is perfect for a summer book club group. I like the printables for all the books and questions for groups. I will be using all of these for each book. I hope more publishers do this.

Amazing book loved the characters abd plot. I couldn't stop reading I stayed up all night. Ii loved the book so much thank you for the arc.

This kit is great. Helps with the talking points, book clubs, and social media platforms. I highly recommend if you need it.

This kit was great. It has a little of everything to help you understand and discuss the book deeper. I loved the bookmarks and can't wait to print them out.

Our book club is so excited to eat through the Meant to Be series together over the summer! We are starting off strong with If the Shoe Fits by Julie Murphy and then will continue onto this second book in the series, By the Book. I was so excited to find this kit available on NetGalley! This guide has it all and is similarly structured to the guides for the other books but with new activities to keep it fun if you are reading the whole series like we are: author and cover designer interview, 10 different discussion questions, cute crafts like making bookmarks, a cute way to find your pen name that is reminiscent of Seventeen magazine quizzes from my childhood, writing prompts, food and drink recipes, and suggestions for future books to read.

After reviewing the book club suggested packet, I do believe this will make a wonderful discussion for our group.

We Are Bookish killed it again! I snagged this kit after using the one for If The Show Fits since I loved it so much. This kit is similarly set up and just as helpful. This is perfect for a book club or even a book party because the resources are a lot more fun than what you’d consider for your typical book club. I am so happy to have these kits.

Requested this book, didn’t realise at first but read this book back in November. It was a good read overall, but it did take me a good while of the read to get into this book. Thinking definitely a good 3.8 -4.2 star read

This kit was incredible, and it was simple to use. In the future, I would be thrilled to perform another kit.

Absolutely wonderful! I'm so excited about this kit. I cant wait to print the items that were included. Now, I'm beyond ready to drink the drink and taste the food recipe offered. I can't believe just how much I love this little kit! I'm also adding the recommendations to my TBR!

An adorable BIPOC retelling of Beauty and The Beast book club kit. Has a pen name generator, author q & a, printable bookmarks, writing exercises, book club discussion prompts, writing advice, charcuterie board inspiration, recipes, and book suggestions. Definitely had me itching to pick up and read the book.
