This is a great kit with lots of helpful material for book clubs, including discussion questions, an interview with the author, recommendations for similar books, and One Last Stop-themed bookmarks to print. It is a great starting point for discussing the book. I've taken inspiration from this kit, thanks!

I was incredibly tempted to just say OMG I LOVED THIS, but this deserves more than that. I enjoyed One Last Stop a lot when I first read it, but this kit was something extra I had no idea I needed. The questions made me analyze things about the book I hadn’t thought about. And I loved the book recommendations at the end.

This book club kit was one of it's kind! Apart from the discussion questions it included, for instance, a playlist lo listen to while reading, a recipe for a dish relevant to the story and printable bookmarks.

One of the most important aspects of book clubs is the possibility to discuss the novel which you are reading. To make the conversations easier, the questions provided are crucial – which this kit has pinned down perfectly, since the questions were relevant, interesting and unique.

I also appreciated that content warnings (divided into "on page" and "off page") were included.

I normally strongly dislike different time overlaps but of course I enjoyed it because Casey McQuiston is perfection. I am absolutely in love with Jane and I very much so relate to August so its pretty ideal to feel this way. I believed their love from the moment they met. I would read five more books on what their lives entail after One Last Stop. I.loved.every.single.character. This book blended a lot of different genres - sci-fy, mystery, romance and the imagery that each added was superb. So excited to read it again and again and again and have my heart explode with love nonstop.

I didn't care for the questions as they were mostly comprehension based. I did love the printable bookmarks and the recipes included, and Spotify playlist. It was such a unique touch.

This book club kit was amazing. I especially loved the author interview, letter, and printables, and the discussion questions were incredibly helpful in fostering discussion!

Great Book Club Kit! This kit provides a letter from the author, interview with the author, discussion questions for a book club, as well as suggestions on what to read next. Some of my favorite parts of the kit are the printable bookmarks and a playlist to go along with the book. By far the best part of the kit is the recipe for The Su Special, reading about the concoction made me want to try it, so this recipe will definitely be used!

Great way to get our book club going! Really enjoyed what the kit had to offer and we could use it to discuss the both and what points we connected more with the story and the characters.

I read this book back in the summer of this year, so seeing this arc for the book kit was a no brainer. It lays out the trigger warnings, discussions questions, inspiration behind the book, and other recommendations.
The font was pretty, and the layout was well organized.
The discussion questions are good for big questions on thinking about it on a deeper level. If it wasn’t for the sex scene, I figured this would work for a school, just depends on the regulations. But it would be good for a book club which was probably the intended audience.

Thank you to Netgalley and We Are Bookish for another great book club kit. I always find the content to be helpful for book clubs but also readers advisory and promotion in the library. The bookmark, playlist, and recipe can all be used to promote the book 'One Last Stop' but also our romance reads, LGBTQ+ titles, and more. For a small library these resource are extremely helpful! I hope to see more book club kits! Thank you so much!

This is a very cute book club kit on “One Last Stop” by Casey McQuiston.

There is an interview with the author, Casey McQuiston, and there are discussion questions for the book.

Also, the layout is absolutely gorgeous. Everything is very beautiful and perfectly lined. There are even printable bookmarks and recipes from the novel. There is also a playlist with all the must-hear songs connecting to the book.

If you are going to read “One Last Stop” by Casey McQuiston, I highly recommend you to use this book club kit.

The Book Club Kit is a wonderful resource for any bookclub. It is extensive and beautifully designed. The recipe and the playlist will set the mood for our bookclub meeting next month.
We will be using the questions for our discussion. This Kit will be put to good use.

Another fab kit. Again a book I didn't know before I saw the kit and ph I'm so glad I found it. I loved the authors interview and bookmarks and I cannot wait to read more of the author.

I read this for the author interview, and it did not disappoint. These book kits come with a reliable set of components—interview, discussion questions, bookmarks, recipe, suggestions for further reading, etc.—leaving a little bit of something for everybody (the recipes will probably always make my eyes glaze over, but they'll be inspiration for others—and in this case, the photo of the finished "Su Special" was a nice touch).

But back to the author interview: I've said of other kits that I prefer interviews with someone other than the author (editor, publisher, etc.), whose perspective I'm less likely to be able to find elsewhere but...I'm going to eat my words, if not the Su Special. What I've loved so much about McQuiston's books is how *different* each one is—each smart and meticulously researched, but with wildly divergent plots and settings. I love knowing that the next book will be unputdownable but not having a clue beyond that...so it's pretty great to get to peek more directly inside McQuiston's brain for a moment. (I particularly love that the interviewer asked what discussion questions McQuiston would include for book clubs—definitely an interview question I'd like to see used more often.)

I've said it before and will say it again, but these are useful kits for not just book clubs but anyone wanting some food for thought for essay-writing...or for overthinking and review-writing.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a free copy of this book club kit.

4.5/5

Great book kit! Between the recipes, playlist and question there really isn’t anything else that you might need to host your club.

this was a very enjoyable kit it created great discussion questions and was a great way to get readers thinking more deeply about the book Some of the coolest features of this kit were the author interview, questions for discussion, and a bunch of other extra eg the playlist. I think this book kit is great and it enhanced the experience of the story so much for me.
