The indepth author interview was fabulous, I really liked the "what to read next" section and the trivia was very fun to try.

Very nice. I loved the book club cookbook printable and the listing of books that inspired the author. There are some good ones there that I plan on reading.

This book club kit contains a wide range of content to discuss in book club meetings about Wild Game. I particularly enjoyed the page about the books that inspired Adrienne Brodeur whilst she was writing this book. I also thought the recipes pages would be very fun to follow.

I hadn't heard of Wild Game before reading this kit however now I would be excited to read it!

The Book Club Kits are fabulous tools to enrich your reading experience. They provide questions that make you reflect more on what you've read and points to discuss in a book club to hear different thoughts and explore further. Even if you're not in a book club, you can use it to ponder on some aspects of the book that you may have missed or wouldn't have lingered on when you read it. If you want to get more out of a book, the book club kit will act as a wonderful learning tool. Highly recommended.

This book club kit was well thought out and put together. It not only included thoughtful questions, but also trivia, bookmarks, and recipes! I appreciated that it included information on the author and suggestions for books to read if you enjoyed this one. This would be a great kit for someone wanting to change up a book club meeting.

This is a REVIEW ONLY of The BOOK CLUB KIT for “Wild Game: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me,” a nonfiction memoir by Adrienne Brodeur about a teenage girl whose mother makes her complicit in a love affair with her father’s best friend. This fabulously created colorful 20-page e-book Kit is loaded with everything to make your Book Club meeting memorable. Featuring lots of discussion questions to stimulate insightful two-way conversations among reading groups, it’s also full of visual appeal because of the bright art and bold, eye-catching graphics. The Q & As are excellent and will be useful for Book Club Leaders, Librarians, as well as readers themselves who want extra insight into the background of the book and author. 💕 As all compelling Book Kits do by adding additional graphics and fun elements, this one truly rocks! It offers food and drink recipes; trivia questions; bookmarks to cut out; an author interview; photos of the characters; additional suggested readings, and so much more. This is a truly exciting Book Kit worthy of it’s designation. 💕

4.5/5

This is what I want when I get a book club kit! It has everything you need, the questions, a quiz, author interview and so much more!

I love that they give you recipes but also blank cards so you can share recipes with you book club!

I also love when they include what I like to call a souvenir with the book mark but it also included book recommendations for books that inspired Adrienne Brodeur and what to read next. All in all a great book club kit!

A wonderful downloadable resource for those who want to think about, and further discuss the themes in the book, an absolute recommend.

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.

It's not always easy to host a book club, as picking the right questions for a fruitful discussion can be very hard. Not only did I love that part of this book, but I also really loved the author's background information provided.

In this book club kit, I found the background information on what inspired the author to be really illuminating. It's a great element that can be added to the discussion to deepen the understanding of the book.

I absolutely loved this book, and it's so thought provoking. It's not always easy to figure out how to lead a discussion, though, and this kit was definitely useful for that.

This book club kit to use when reading Wild Game was great! It includes an author interview that was quite thorough, a discussion guide, recipes inspired by the book, photos, and trivia. I really enjoyed not just the next books to read suggestions, but books that inspired the author as well. A great companion to reading Wild Game.

Another great resource for anyone wanting to start or contribute to an existing book club. I love how the discussion guide is, and how it even incorporates ideas from the author herself. The q&a section is always insightful and a great look into how comes to write the book and what their process is.

This kit even has recipes includes which, while also being true to the book, are a fun activity for a book club to take part in.

I loved the snapshots, and also the trivia questions, these were a nice surprise to find at the end of the kit.

All in all a wonderful resource for all book clubs, full of insightful questions to pose and also fun activities to plan.

It's been a while since I read Wild Game (loved it!), though I recently listened to the author's Family Secrets podcast interview by Dani Shapiro. This was a great resource that I truly enjoyed. Highly recommend!

This book club kit is wonderful. I like how their are pictures included that add to the story, allowing you to put faces to the people the author writes about. I think the interview, questions, and recipes really add something extra to a book club gathering. It also helps the facilitator plan out the activities.
