The prompts for the book clubs were really good. Nice conversation starters and there are recommendations at the end.

This resource is very helpful for people who are into book clubs! Great for conversation starters that revolve around the book.

This book club kit was well thought out and put together. It not only included thoughtful questions, but also bookmarks, games, charcuterie advice, drink recipes, and writing activities that fit the theme of the book. I appreciated that it included information on the author and cover designer, other books by her/the publisher, and suggestions for books to read if you enjoyed this one. So much good info in this kit! This would be a great kit for someone wanting to spice up a book club meeting.

First of all, my pen name is Nina Leprince de Beaumont. This was probably my favorite part of the kit, because it really engages the readers in the story. Along those lines, I also love the writer’s advice, because it gives the members of the book club more insight into the journeys of the main characters. I also really liked the book recommendations and how There there were three different categories of books similar to By the Book.

It is an excellent complement to a personal reading, it makes the experience have another background and is more attractive, and generates a more memorable experience that accompanies the story of the book itself for a long time when you remember it on future occasions.

Achei que fosse um livro, mas é só uma entrevista com a autora, o que foi bem decepcionante, mas acho que não li a descrição corretamente, erro meu :(

I have no idea how and why this book does not have more hype, I have never seen it on Bookstagram and it needs to be! I have never read a Fairytale retelling before, and didn't actually realise it was one before starting to book but I loved it. There was so many references to Beauty and the Beast which made it even better. I loved the exploration of the publishing industry and the whole book was just gorgeous. Such a beautiful romance. Would highly recommended.

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).
