The formatting wasn't great in this guide. Some text wasn't readable and it was generally hard to navigate.

This is a really fun Book kit! I loved how they included multiple recipes that are included! The pages are also very cute, I like how they are decorated. Loved the questions they were very in depth and I really enjoyed the conversation with the author! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this kit.

Short and sweet guide. It includes discussion questions, an author interview, and recipes. The recipes were a nice addition!

This is a REVIEW ONLY of The BOOK CLUB KIT for “The Chicken Sisters,” a novel by KJ Dell Antonia about two families competing in fast food chicken wars brought into the national spotlight. The colorful eight-page e-book is filled with discussion questions to stimulate two-way conversations; an insightful Interview with the author; and ‘tasty’ recipes inspired by the novel. This colorful and charming learning tool is designed especially for Book Club Leaders, Librarians, as well as readers themselves who want extra insight into the background of the book.

TheBookMaven graciously thanks NetGalley, Author KJ Dell Antonia, and Publisher Penguin Random House Library Resources for this Advanced Reader’s Copy (ARC) for review.

I highly recommend reading The Chicken Sisters along with a group and using this Book Club Kit. The book is such a feel good story about sisters and it's funny as well. It is so good to already have discussion questions ready for a book club meeting. This Book Club Kit is so handy to have. Thank you!

Though I didn't read THE CHICKEN SISTERS, I was curious about how a Book Club Kit would be handled. I really like the way it was written, and I think it would be a great research guide for those in a book club.

This is such a fun, engaging book club kit! I love reading interviews with authors, and hearing about what inspired them to write their novel. The included discussion questions are perfect for encouraging deeper exploration of the book's characters and themes, the kit is easily printable/accessible and I loved how Netgalley began including on their sites. Will definitely use in the near future with my very own book club.

I just read the book club kit for THE CHICKEN SISTERS by KJ Dell’Antonia & think that it would be a fun addition to any bookclub meeting. Containing several questions to get the conversation going, this kit will make discussing the book easy & fun. The recipe at the back looks delicious. The Q & A with the author reads like she wrote the notes to you directly. This is a delightful addition to the book.
Thank you to NetGalley for the complimentary copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.

You need a guideline to host your book club meeting. Don't look further. With this kit you get everything to setup and host a successful and interesting meeting. Discussion questions are provided to drive conversations around the book. If you are interested in an interview with KG Dell'Antonia you will find this in this kit as well.
If you are wondering what to serve you will have a few ideas provided which comes from KJ's kitchen.
How fun is that? The design is very fun and all in all a nice tool to round up the book journey.

Haven’t read the book - downloaded thinking it was included In this download buy these are just questions for book clubs

Though this book was not a favorite in our book club, the discussion questions in this book club kit helped move the discussion along. The questions were a nice supplement to the book and certainly helped create discussion, but I think the real "star" of the show were the recipes in the back--though I did find it interesting that the recipes were included in the book club kit and not the actual book, when food played such a large part in the story.

I read The Chicken Sisters and was excited to see the Book Club Kit for it here. Our Book Club will be using it next month as we sit around, having chicken of course, and this will be helpful for our discussion. I love that there is a conversation with the author, KJ Dell'Antonia as I like to hear their thoughts behind the writing of a story. But the best is the "secret" recipe for Frank's Family Fried Chicken. Yum.
If your book club is reading this book, which I highly recommend, this guide will be a great help.
Thanks to #netgalley for this resource.

Ok. So I thought it would be a book but then it is a book kit with question that might be helpful for the ones reading the book or have already read it. And also there are receipes at the end😃

This book was sent to me as an ARC on Netgalley. However, all opinions were of my own.
Unfortunately I was unable to read this book as I did not realise the book was only containing prompts for the book club including questions for each chapter.

My neighbors and I decided to start a monthly book club and are kicking it off with “The Chicken Sisters”. Having discussion questions is a must, so I am grateful that those have been provided in this kit. What I didn’t anticipate were the recipes that were included! I am so excited to make the cream pie recipe for us to eat as we discuss this book together.
