I can't wait to get into all the questions. I also adore the bookmarks and recipe. These book kits are a great way formyfriends and I to get together for a fun read and in depth discussion.

This book kit was a great addition to reading By the Book by Jasmine Guillory. I tried to refer to it as much as possible during my read and it served as a great discussion guide, and something book clubs should definitely use.

Super cute book club kit. Perfect for any book clubs who enjoy this book and genres alike. Particularly loved the book marks and the book recs.

By the Book is a retelling of that movie and I thought both characters were decent and the love story was okay.

Isabelle works for a publishing company and isn't sure what she wants to do with her life, whether she wants to stay in this career or go into another profession.
She's been doubting her skills as a writer and editor for sometime now, and her confidence level is at an all time low.

She jumps at the chance to contact Beau Towers to find out why he's not making progress on his memoir.
Beau is a child celebrity due to having famous parents working in the Hollywood industry. He's jaded, an asshole, spoiled and completely lost.

This is a fantastic book club kit! I loved the switch up that also gave writing advice and the interview with the cover artist - I haven't seen that in the other kits. We Are Bookish is killing it with these and myself and my book club love them!

I adore Jasmine Guillory books, and By the Book was certainly no exception. This is a super fun series and a retelling of Beauty and the Beast was a fun addition to the series. Izzy and Beau were written so well and their relationship was fun to see develop as the story progressed. Great balance of sugar and spice in this story too. Can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Loved the Book Club kit too!

An exciting addiction to connect with the characters and provide an interpersonal experience. It makes the characters real and brings us closer to the author.

I have actually read the published copy of this book. However the bookish club kit is super cute. The interview with the cover designer and the matching book marks. The discussion questions is really good for a book club talk. I loved the character building in this book and I found it very easy to related to the characters in the book. I also love the design of the book as a whole.

I can't wait to use this resource in a book club with my sister! I loved this book and have been wanting to show it to her. I hope to use it in a more formal book club setting someday, but for now, we'll enjoy it just the two of us.
I already ADORE this Jasmine Guillory book and she hasn't read it yet).

Super cute and fun. Not what I expected, but it for sure put Jasmine Guillory on my radar as an author to read!

"A tale as old as time - for a new generation." Once I read that tagline in the synopsis, I knew this was a book for a book club. I was so right. This is a great book for a group and this Book Club Kit was so useful during the discussion. I highly recommend reading any book by Jasmine Guillory.

I mistakenly requested this book because I thought it was the actual book.
However, I think this book club kit is perfect for discussions, the author already left some topics. I loved the interview of the author and cover designer. I loved the designer's best because I've always wondered how book covers were made. There were also some recipes, so you can get ideas on what to prepare for your book club meeting

I love that this book club book is longer than others. I’m glad that they added fun things in here rather than just discussion questions.

This is a great book club kit to go together with the book. I would definitely enjoy it if my book club were to have such creative ways for meet-ups.

I really enjoyed having this book club kit as I led a book club on By the Book. Starting out, I sent the author interview to all the group members so they could have a greater appreciation of the book, along with the questions so they could come prepared to discuss. We thought the questions were all fitting and helped us to really get into our feelings and interpretations of the novel. I loved that there was an interview with the cover designer as well!

There were some fun additions, like the book marks, pen name generator (Belle Evans is mine) and some writing exercises that our group enjoyed doing. The charcuterie board and margarita recipes were a hit as well!

I always love getting readers advisory, so the "what to read next" section was a nice addition to the book club kit.

Overall, a fun way to enhance your book club read!

I love the bookmarks, they are so cute! t's very easy to print them and makes a great gift for fans of this book. I found the interview with the author very interesting, because we can know more details about the story and what Jasmine had in mind when writing it. I'm going to take advantage of the weekend to try the recipe for SPARKLING ROSÉ MARGARITA with my friends from the book club hahaha!!
