Part of my January 2020 5-star review for this novel said, "I thought Such a Fun Age would be a twisty dark novel, but it’s really freshly-voiced, page-turning literary fiction. Recommended for book clubs, latest and greatest modern fiction fans, and people who thought THE HELP was problematic."
So here we go, book clubs!
This 5-page Kit includes:
- Two character-themed cocktail recipes (one of Emira, one for Alix)
- Eleven discussion questions, such as, "The last chapter follows Emira in the years after the incident at the Chamberlains'. In what way did things change, if at all? Did anything you learned about Kelley, Alix, or Briar surprise you?"
- A two-page Conversation with (author) Kiley Reid
- A printable to color the cover (I'm not sure the coloring page adds much, but I guess if you're printing out the kit anyway why not?)
In short, this is a very nice (if somewhat standard) book club discussion guide. I'd be happy to have it if I was the host preparing to lead a meeting.

This kit includes cocktail recipes that would be fitting for your discussion, an interview with the author and a page you can colour in to look like the cover or your own vision. I never had a bookclub kit and see something like this for the first time and think it would be a fun addition for you and your friends!

I enjoyed reading the novel, so I had high expectations for this supplement, however the book club kit fell flat as it did not provide that much of a debate; overall, it was a bit redundant.

This was not what I expected. Not a lot of question and a talk with the author. Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for the arc of this book in return for my honest review. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on this review.

I JUST hosted a bookclub for this title and I wish I had this beforehand.
I would highly recommend anyone in a bookclub OR writing a paper on Such A Fun Age read this book club kit - it helps you to see things in different lights and helps your brain think about everything within the book.
