This kit was great. It has a little of everything to help you understand and discuss the book deeper.

This is so good and cute and helpful and just plain cool! This was my first time checking out one of the We Are Bookish Book Club Kits and I am thoroughly impressed. I LOVE that this one includes suggested discussion questions from the author herself, what a cool touch. And all the discussion questions are really good! Thoughtful, deep, challenging, and appropriately honoring the standard the book sets. I appreciate that it does not shy away from asking readers to discussion intersections of identity. It's also really well designed and visually pleasing. Thanks!

A book club pick for an incredibly important BIPOC novel that teaches the importance of anti-racism. Whilst I am white, I believe diversity - especially in books - is so important. And as a mother and wife to BIPOC persons, do my best to have a bookshelf that is inclusive to all. Whilst I don’t currently have the main book on my shelf, that’s something I need to amend. 😊

Includes author q&a, discussion questions, printable bookmarks, recipes, a playlist, book club quiz, book suggestions, trauma support resources,

Extremely Helpful and Well-Curated!
The Book Club Kit: Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams from We Are Bookish is absolutely fantastic! It’s packed with thoughtful discussion questions, background info, and engaging activities that really enhanced our reading experience. The material is beautifully put together and sparked such rich conversation within my book club. I’ll definitely be using this resource again in the future—it's a must-have for any serious book club. Highly recommend!

-I enjoyed hearing the inspiration for this novel and background in the author interview.
-The discussion questions were open-ended and thought provoking. Perfect for a book club setting.
-The printable bookmark available was a cute addition to the guide.
-Trying to decide which themed-food/drink for a book club meeting can be difficult. I liked how this guide provides ideas.
-The playlist suggestion is immersive and takes more pressure off the book club host since this is taken care of already.

We Are Bookish Book Club Kits always gives me something to digest and this time it is a book guide that includes a discussion and support guide for events that are all too common. I will be posting this support list for all to see and having copies on hand for people to take without comment. Silent voices can be heard to.

Thank you

I absoluelty love these kits. I run a book group that is all about the intersectionality of gender, race, class etc where we read fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and plays that dabble in an assortment of genres for ages twelve and up. A kit like this makes it 10x easier to prep for my discussion that month with a sort of guideline for what sort of questions can be asked on top of the author interviews. I also really enjoy the handouts that these kits provide. The book marks and even book related lists are great for patrons wanting more from the book group.
