I really enjoyed using this kit along with the book. It helped greatly with discussion question ideas and helped us stay organized during discussion. I wish all books came with something like this.

"A dream is a wish your heart makes..."

A modern-day fairytale. Cinderella meets his prince charming in a JFK flight. Meeting again in a "The bachelor"-ish reality TV Show. Could it be fate or coincidence?

I love how the story tackles love for family, teaching us not to judge anyone base on their appearance and being appreciative. Finding love in the time you didn't really expect. Appreciating self worth.

If you're the type of person who believes in reality TV show and meet your true love, then this book is a must read.

This is such an adorable book club kit! I love the unique ideas for cosplay, the discussion questions, and all of the activities to do. There is even a pizza recipe and a drink to make for book club that would give a great vibe to the meeting. Also, the book recommendations at the end of the guide are perfect for anyone who enjoyed If the Shoe Fits.

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, and I loved how Netgalley began including this in request. Will definitely use in the near future with my very own book club.

I like the book club kit. It’s a great addition to the book.
I think learning about the author and the process adds another layer to the reading experience.
The questions are always fun and make for a good discussion.
The added complete the shoe styling was a nice bonus.
Overall a good idea

This Book Club Kit was great. I loved the interview with the author which allows more insight into the book. The bookmarks really came in handy. The activities are cute and the recipes are wonderful for a book club meeting.

The suggestions of what to read next along with other books written by Julie Murphy was helpful.

The Book Club Kit is definitely something I would recommend to go with the book.

This is a hearty recommend from me. If you haven't read the book yet, do so! I was overjoyed to read this book but am even happier to see that there's a book club kit! As usual, it contains discussion questions, an author interview, bookmarks, a fun quiz, fun challenge. The author herself has also suggested questions, which is amazing.

I adored the If the Shoe Fits Book Club kit. I host a large number of book clubs and looking for ways to creatively up my game for a meeting can be exhausting. My readers would love if I utillized even 1/3 of the items included in the kit and there is a wide-enough range that that I could use different pieces for differnet book clubs. This is an incredible time saver, a fun add to a book club, and a professional spin on on a book club gathering. Thank you!

What a perfect little kit for a buddy read or a book club and even for an individual. 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. I loved the quiz's and challenges, the bingo and the Pizza Recipe.
This is an all round amazing kit and who doesn't love a retelling of a classic fairy tale!

I love Julie Murphy and I love seeing plus sized characters get the romances they deserve. Getting this kit was literally perfect. I loved the little challenges and recipes.

This is a fun book to do a buddy read/ book club read , if you're looking for something light hearted and charming. It's not too easy to figure out discussion points though, and that's where this guide comes in useful!

I loved this book and I love this book kit! I love any book with plus sized characters and if I had a book club I would definitely want my club to read this book.

I loved the fun activities and recipes!

SUCH A COOL KIT!!! I got soooo many ideas from it, that I might use them in the future for the other books I read!

Wow! I was really impressed with this Book Club Kit for If the Shoe Fits - it went above and beyond the normal interview with an author and discussion questions to add challenges and games. The Cindy sounds like it'll be one of my favorite cocktails!

My bookclub usually does snacks and questions and keeps it pretty low-key, but I would love to incorporate more activities! As for the quiz- unfortunately, I tied with A's and D's so I'm probably sent home some time in the middle. 😉 I will definitely be suggesting this book so we can use this Book Club Kit at our next meeting! Thanks to We Are Bookish for access to this awesome kit!

This was my first time using a Book Club Kit and what an excellent experience! Having not hosted a book club before, I really liked how this provided me with useful resources, discussion points, fun things to do and suggestions of what to read next. While not all the activities felt appropriate for "adults" and seemed more like something you'd find in a young girl's magazine, I did like the bingo which was fun to play! I will totally be using one of these again, for my next meetup.

We really enjoyed the discussion questions, and the recommended books. The Book Club Bingo section was very cute. The designing your own shoe and DisneyBounding were nice, but sort of childish.

This is such an excellent book club kit, it makes me want to host bookclub just so I can pick this book! The disneybound challenge is such a fun idea, and the quiz to see how far you would make it on before midnight is hilarious. Julie Murphy gives a great interview and discussion questions. This kit is a perfect bookclub night all set up for you!
