Book club kit is a compilation of interviews with Christina Lauren about Tangled Up in You, her new release. They offer us recipes for drinks, juices, how to create a flower crown, and very good book recommendations. Very good for an activity among good friends

I downloaded this the moment it appeared in my shelf. Thank you so much Netgalley for this kit!
it would be such a tremendous help in book club, the questions are great for discussions and debates made reading fun as always.
The bookmark gift idea, bites and cocktails idea. This included and interview with the authors who explain their their writing process and gave advice that I’m sure was cherished by upcoming writers.
I didn’t know this was actually a book kit before downloading it but it got me to get the book.

Christina Lauren’s Tangled Up in You is an absolute delight—a modern fairy tale that is as heartwarming as it is enchanting. This reimagining of Disney’s Tangled is a masterclass in romance and storytelling, weaving a narrative that is both fresh and deeply satisfying.

Ren Gylden, a woman raised off the grid, is a breath of fresh air with her bookish charm and inventive spirit. Her transition from a life of isolation to the bustling world of Corona College is portrayed with a mix of humor and genuine emotion. Fitz, with his meticulously planned future and hidden past, is the perfect foil to Ren’s idealism. The chemistry between them is electric, making their journey from rivals to soulmates utterly captivating.

The road trip element adds a dynamic twist, transforming their academic assignment into an adventure filled with discovery and growth. Christina Lauren’s signature wit and warmth shine through, making every moment with Ren and Fitz feel both authentic and magical.

The novel’s pacing is impeccable, and its blend of humor, romance, and personal evolution keeps the reader thoroughly engaged. Tangled Up in You is a standout in the Meant to Be collection, offering a heartfelt and irresistible story that reaffirms the joy of falling in love.

I am currently in a book club and I would LOVE to have a kit like this. In a discussion of a book is essential to have some interesting discussion questions prepared to keep the conversation flowing and to be organized. Moreover, the fact that this kit has an interview with the author is amazing; in some of the discussions of national books the authors where there and could explain some scenes, the writing process... and it was an amazing experience, so this is something similar when the author isn't able to be there (we are too many book lovers haha).

The bookmarks are a great idea to get a small gift that is book related but the cocktails and the bites... that is just genius. If the meeting is in person and not online I would absolutely prepare them and bring them to enjoy while discussing! It is so original!

This Book Club Kit is great! I loved Tangled Up in You by Christina Lauren. The story is fresh, but yet stays true to Tangled and the story of Rapunzel. This Book Club kit contains great questions, bookmarks, interviews, and more! Definitely a great to have. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this free advanced readers copy. All opinions expressed are my own.

Christina Lauren is one of my favorite authors (and no, I never know how to speak about the team, but I adore their partnership nonetheless!), and Tangled is one of my all time favorite movies, so naturally this book was my dream come true! They treated my favorite Disney tale with the utmost love, care, and perfection. Spoiler alert: the book itself was a five star read for me. I adored every last second of it, so I was ecstatic to see this book club kit, and it was such a great complement to the book.

I love how this kit introduced us more to the writers behind the book, as well as the characters and world within it. As a writer, I benefitted greatly from the author interviews and advice there, which surprised and delighted me. The questions also are great for discussion, but also for thinking more into the story just as a solo reader. The activities had the same effect, and I will be bothering my friends to read this asap so that we can enjoy them together!

Finally... the "gifts!" The bookmarks are absolute perfection, and the drink ideas are *chef's kiss* amazing! Those especially closed the link between my childlike love for this story with my very adult self reading it. The snacks were the final perfect piece.

I loved this story and packet so much, so I was worried about a book slump, but they thought of that too with the book recs. 10/10 book club package! Thank you NetGalley and Christina Lauren for this delightful gift and amazing story!

Thank you Netgalley and publisher for this ARC Book club kit.

My library book club will very much benefit from this!

The questions were fun. Most things where easily transferable to an online book club but would have been better for an in person book club, which is what these kits are meant for! Overall good fun and brought some good conversations up about the book.
Did not like the pages of book recs that followed would have been happier with one or two of a similar vibe instead!

I was very excited to see this pop up in NetGalley and immediately pressed the download now button thinking I was getting the book. Well, I didn't get the book but I got a wonderful reading guide that made me promptly go out to get the book because I was so excited about it.

I love book club kits and think they should be included with so many books! What a fun way to discuss this cute book with friends :)
