Great resource to have when reading the book and discussing it with others. I'm hoping to get more people who have read it so that I can hear the interpretation that other people have and what else they got from the book.

This is a great companion resource for any book club reading Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi. The kit is thoughtfully curated and includes everything a facilitator might need to guide an engaging and meaningful discussion—especially helpful for readers navigating the book’s rich world-building and powerful themes.

This book club kit is well-organized, with insightful discussion questions, author interviews, and thoughtful suggestions for related books. The additional materials, like background information on the book and its themes, provided context that enriched our understanding.

THANK YOU! We Are Bookish never misses. These are AMAZING.

As someone who helps run a local book club, these book club kits are such a great tool to have! Everything is included and laid out so easily! Thank you for making such usefully and insightful tools for club!

Not only do I enjoy them, but I know our guests at book club enjoy them too! Makes us look more organized when I don't feel like I am lol.

The book marks are always hit! A nice little keepsake to print out.

An incredibly complete kit! Great discussion questions for the book club, it also included an interview with the author, featuring questions that I know would come up during our discussions.
There were printable bookmarks, food suggestions related to the book (immersion is everything!), a link to a themed playlist, a quiz and a word search, and even recommendations for other books, movies, and series.
This was my first experience with one of these published kits, and I’m absolutely thrilled!

This is an awesome kit with a guide on how to create a book club around the novel, Children of Blood and Bone, by Tomi Adeyemi. I've always wanted to add this to my speculative fiction book club unit, but I didn't know how until now. I think this is a great guide in what this book has to offer, and how to adapt it to different readers. I will definitely be using this in my classroom!
Thanks to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for sharing!

Great resource for people reading Children Of Blood And Bone. I haven’t read it yet (it’s on my tbr), so I can’t say if, for example, all the necessary content warnings were listed at the content warning section. I have mixed feelings about the content warning section having a link to StoryGraph (“for a full list of reader-submitted content warnings visit The StoryGraph”), I get it but also it felt a bit weird. But I’m glad at least some of the CW were listed in the kit itself.

The author interview was nice and gave some insight into the writing process, inspiration, etc.

The discussion questions for book club were good and felt like something that would make you think about the characters, their motivations, etc.

I personally love collecting bookmarks so the printable bookmarks were a nice touch. Also liked having book-themed drinks and snacks listed. I personally would have preferred the recipes to be written in the book itself instead of link to a website, but that’s just a personal preference.

The playlist was great and I loved how it had the songs listed and also a Spotify link. The quiz and word search were fun little activities. I personally wouldn’t put the answer key to the word search right next to the search, and instead have it on the back of the book, for example on the last page, then you wouldn’t accidentally see the answers right away.

The what to read next section was a nice idea. I personally would have highlighted some indie authors too instead of just huge, well known traditionally published authors.

About the author section and highlighting the author’s other books was a nice addition to the end.

Thank you so much for providing this material!!!

I'm planning to read this series next month and was looking up guides to help me think about and process the story more. I came across this book club kit and it is absolutely wonderful.

I love the interview with the author to give us a little more insight into their thought process and work behind the story. The discussion questions are perfect, exactly what I was hoping to find before reading the series.

The rest of the kit is just so much more fun than I had expected! Beautiful bookmarks, food and drink recipes, a playlist, and even a quiz to find out which Maji clan you would be in. It makes the story feels so much more immersive and has me even more excited to get started reading.

This was an informational, emotional journey, filled with deep-rooted spiritualism and mysticism. The author gave a revealing and emotional interview about the foundation of this book. It was a captivating, enticing, and intriguing lure to this book.

I really love these book club kits. I, admittedly, am not a part of a book club, but even so, this is a great ad on to the reading experience.

Such a great kit. Can’t wait to read this book and utilize the kit for discussion points.i was able to print out the bookmarks and laminate them. If I could print them on a heavy card stock, that would be even better.

This is excellent! My coworkers and I have a book club and never really know what to discuss. We just say what we like or dislike. This is an impactful story with a great organization kit and ways to get readers inspired to discuss heavy topics.
