I recently shared this book club kit with a few students who had decided to read "Wilder Girls" by Rory Power on their own. They appreciated the content of this kit, especially the discussion questions and the Tox Symptom quiz. It was a great enhancement to their independent reading. Thanks to Net Galley and We Are Bookish for creating this content and sharing it with me to review!

*Thank you to Rory Power, Delacorte Press, and Netgalley for providing an electronic resource book kit to read for free in exchange for a review. Wilder Girls was read on my own. All my opinions are my own.*

I was looking for a spooky, horror novel similar to the Lord of the Flies, and I saw this book all over TikTok. In addition, I wanted a book kit to read with my sister to discuss the book.
After reading, this book took inspiration from Lord of the Flies and the movie Annihilation (only have seen the movie sorry book lovers) and added some sapphic and feminist twists to them. If you love both of those books and movies, I would highly recommend this book to you.

The good:
I enjoyed having the Points of View.
I like that we learned bits and pieces of the disease, the Tox, throughout the book and the effects it had on students of different sexes and ages.
The tox affects the maturing of the girls.
Scientists researching the disease.
Body horror. Power certainly did not hide away from the description.
“It's like that, with all of us here. Sick, strange, and we don't know why. Things bursting out of us, bits missing and piece sloughing off and then we harden and smooth over”

Needs improvement:
The ending. It was rushed and left out some important answers.

The book club kit:
After reading this guide for the book with answers, it improved my reading experience. The book club kit provides an interview with Powers that answers some of the questions remaining.
The discussion guide also allows the group to ponder and find answers together like we did.


Overall the book club kit improved my reading experience for wilder girls. I would give the novel and book club kit 4 out of 5 stars.

The book club kit provides an extensive array of resources to enhance discussions around Wilder Girls. I found the interactive sections like food and drink suggestions and the book-themed playlist particularly enjoyable. The kit's design, linking back to the book's cover, was a nice touch. Prior to encountering this kit, I wasn't familiar with Wilder Girls, but it has now found a place on my never-ending 'to be read' list!

thank you so much for this book club kit! it's sure to be of use during our monthly meet up. Absolutely loved the book.

Currently going to use this for my book club! My students chose this book for their book club and after reviewing this book club kit, we are going to have so much to talk about.

I actually loved this printable Book Club Kit.

The graphics were well designed the art was tasteful

I finally have the excuse to make my book club friends read this book, and with a kit that even tells you which food to bring and music to play, I can't fail!

Thanks to We Are Bookish and NetGalley, who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest opinion.

These are so helpful and so thorough. We have been choosing a book each for BookClub which is lovely for experiencing each other’s taste, but can mean a real disparity in terms of reviews and discussions. These guides ensure our discussion is productive and interesting and provides us with plenty structure and material.

This book club kit contains a wide range of materials to act as a companion to a book club meeting on Wilder Girls. I particularly enjoyed the more interactive pages such as those with food and drink suggestions and a playlist tailored to the book. I liked the design of the kit and how it linked back to the books cover.

I hadn't heard of Wilder Girls before reading this kit however now it has been added to my never ending TBR!

It was so nice reading more of the author's thhoughts on the book! Loved the playlist dedicated to the book, especcially seeing my fave artist Blillie Eilish there made me so happy!

Wilder Girl was an incredible book, and this will certainly help anyone who wants to do a book club. It provides an author interview, playlist, recommendations for the meeting, even water bottle labels. You can also find discussion questions and fun quizzes to hand out. This was super comprehensive and will make a book club more enticing. It’s certainly something I’m open to doing for my teen book club!

The book club kit is a very useful tool including resources for this book's fans. It adds to the experience and I'd love to see more kits being available

I really enjoyed this book club resource. I hope they continue to create these for even more books as I really loved the different activities and the creative options to bring to a book club.

This was so fun and thoughtful. It gave me a new outlook on a book I found to be pretty mid and made me want to re-read Wilder Girls with these insights and questions in mind.

This is a great addition to the book "Wilder Girls"! I loved some of the background information, like the author interview and the food and drink recommendations and the little stickers in the kit. It's amazing for a book club or buddy read and more than I expected.
If you're a fan and reading this alone, I highly recommend it as well!
My personal highlight was probably the playlist and the discussion guide. The latter makes it great for beginners or if you and your book club feel a bit stuck.
The quizzes in there are amazing as well and it's so much fun to tackle them together.

Great Book Club Kit for a book that would definitely be worth a read for Book Club.
This comprehensive kit is all you'll ever need to facilitate a Book Club meeting on Wilder Girls, while also leaving some space for personalization.

This was a kit not a book and I didn't quite enjoy it. This book was not something I would read. It's a fansty book and I don't like this particular fansty book

This is a really comprehensive kit. The playlist and quiz, along with the "menu" options are such great additions. I also really like the bottled water labels to use. I can't wait to use this kit with my bookclub.

I’m in charge of choosing books for my book club, and since I read and loved Wilder Girls years ago, I knew this would be perfect to have a look at. I loved the inclusion of a playlist, with popular artists who members are familiar with. I’m sure introducing them to the playlist will make things more enjoyable. I also really liked the book club quiz, it’s a cool idea that I want to implement for future picks.
