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.

I've said it before and I'll say it again : 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.

Miigweetch to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this book club kit for Angeline Boulley's "Fire Keeper's Daughter." This was an great resource that I am excited to share with my Not So Serious Book Club! We all really enjoyed this book and it was super cool to be able to read a letter from the author. I enjoyed the interview with Boulley and the discussion guide, as well suggestions on what to read next.

I will look out for other book club kits from We Are Bookish in the future as I found the content warnings and synopsis very useful. Overall excellent addition to any book club discussion of "Firekeeper's Daughter"!

I absolutely loved Firekeeper's Daughter and I think this kit is a great resource to analyse this novel on a deeply level. I particularly enjoy the interview and it's how interesting is it to know how bits of Angeline life came through in the book?! Thank you Netgalley for this kit

Thank you very much for this great book club kit for Firekeeper's Daughter! It was beautifully put together, and everything a book club needs for great discussion! Book club kits really add something special to a book club, allowing fellow bookworms to take home a part of the book with a bookmark. This kit has been especially useful in promoting the book in our collection. I think this kit was wonderful, and printable activities and bookmarks are always a hit, would love to see more kits with take away items. Thank you NetGalley, We Are Bookish, and Macmillan Books. all opinions are my own.

I found this perfect to have along side the book. I love the content warning at the beginning as I feel this is something that should be included in all books.
The book marks are beautiful and I really enjoyed the interview with the author, it made me feel more connected with the book.
This is something that can not only be used in a book club but by individuals as well.

My Book Club read "Firekeeper's Daughter" last month and I had pre-downloaded this Book Club Kit - I sent it to everyone in advance so they could read the author interview and other resources, and we went through the list of discussion questions as a group. Everyone agreed that the questions really enhanced our discussion.

I recently started a bookclub so i was delighted to see a kit for the Firekeeper's Daughter. It contains some great discussion questions and the indigenous reading suggestions were a great addition. My favorite part was the author interview. The questions asked were so on point and relevant. Really enjoyed this kit.

Great Book Club Kit! I recommend getting it if you are doing a book club. I used some of the resources for Battle of the Books as this title was among those this year.
