I liked the activities but I thought a more direct explanation of what the “meant to be series” could be helpful I am away from my own research but despite it being referenced in the kit several times it is not explained

I was not sure what to think of this because I feel like book clubs are the main activity and that everyone just brings snacks or something, but there were so many elements to this that I never would have thought of that make it perfect. I love that the theme carries through visually all the pages. I love that some of the discussion questions are a chance for a reader to comment on the same kind of questions as in the author interview. I also loved that there were author suggested discussion questions as well. I think the quiz is really fun because it allows everyone to participate if they dont feel comfortable answering discussion questions. I think having the Disneybound theme is lots of fun and allows people to be creative. Bingo gives members of a club an opportunity to get to know one another and it's great that it's relevant to the book. Lastly, I think the themed food and drink pull it all together really well because the reader is able to fully immerse themselves into the book.

I thought that this was a great book kit. It really made the experience fun while reading, "If the Shoe Fits". The bingo and the cocktail recipe were the favorite in the book club. The least favorite was the shoe decorating.

Useful if you are reading the book and discussing it during your bookclubs (really love the small additions like the bingo and the bookmarks)

This kit is awesome! It has been so helpful for our book club. We love to read and we love to talk, but sometimes it’s hard for someone to talk about what they read. The questions give great starting points that usually lead to more discussion. It’s also nice to get special information about the book from the author. It makes everything feel a little bit more special. I will say, hands down, my favorite part is the food and drink recipes. Such a great addition that everyone loves! This is great for existing book clubs, but also a great starting point to start something new! I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy.

I loved this kit! The games and recipes would really enhance my book club, and anything tied to Disney is great!

This made me very excited to purchase this book. I think that creating book club kits is such a brilliant idea because many people picked up reading during the pandemic while quarantining alone at home. These will allow us to get more involved with the book community and enhance our experiences

Excellent kit that worked very well for me and my long-distance book club! It also provided a good reason to read an excellent book.

This was amazing!!! You get an interview with the author, a quiz, a bingo, and even book recommendations. You kind of get the ins and outs and it's there to make sure you have fun! But my favourite part would definitely be THE PIZZA RECIPE!!!!!!

I cannot wait to try it. This was a great kit!

I read If the Shoe Fits last year and think this is the perfect book club kit for that book. The content included is educational, complete with an author interview about her process, but also includes lots of fun activities you can print out for your book club. All of the activities (and recipes!) are directly related to moments in the book. I would definitely love to utilize this kit with my book club.

I have not yet read ‘If the Shoe Fits’, as it is a scheduled book group book for later on the year. This resource will really help me to plan a fun book group event, plus enabling me to share additional info about the book and the author with my bookshop customers. I’m also planning to try out the cocktail recipe too :-)

I have not read "If the Show Fits" but after reading this bookclub kit my curiosity is overflowing.

These bookclub kits are simply fantastic! The theme and design of these kits are always spot on to match the books. I absolutely love reading about the authors inspiration and this kit provides multiple pages of author responses and thoughts. Its so great!

Content warnings are so important for me as a reader. I love how they are included and also explained in this kit. It mentioned "death of a parent" and then provides how the parent dies. This is great for sensitive readers.

The questions the guide poses dive deep into the themes of the book while also posing some light and fluffy questions. Its a good balance to keep conversation flowing.

The activities in this kit were so cute! The quiz on how far the reader would make it to midnight was so fun!! I got mostly C's on the quiz! Designing a shoe using a mix of different mediums is something I will be doing with my bookclub and Book Bingo is such hoot!!

As always I'm a huge fan of the recipe inclusions and book recommendations in these bookclub kits. They are perfect for bookclub snacks or a baking bookclub activity.
Its always a challenge to find your next read (at least for me) and this guide is a huge help by providing recommendations and other books the author has written.

I love these guides and can't wait to review more!
