A wonderful aid for a book club! Helped out a lot when trying to initiate conversation. Raasch is a wonderful writer, and I look forward to their other books!

I really just expected some discussion questions and a Q&A with the author, but this book club kit is so much more! Absolutely a beautiful and fun resource for the individual reader as well as clubs reading the book together. The author interview was engaging and extensive, the discussion questions are a good mix of story-related and topic-related, and the printed book marks are ADORABLE. I also appreciated the recipes included (that support recipe creators), though my blood sugar probably doesn't. There's also a playlist, a list of activities, a custom game of Kiss/Marry/Banish, and some reading recommendations - and all those elements are equally engaging, cute, silly, and excellent. Top marks.

An excellent book club kit! The interview with Sara Raasch and the questions were useful in coaxing shy book readers to open up and start sharing their thoughts. The recipe ideas and the printable bookmarks were a big hit with everyone. <3

A nice little addition for The Nightmare Before Kissmas by Sara Raasch - some fun questions/activities for local book clubs to use.

This is a great book club kit, containing everything I will need to get my book club discussions going

Adorable kit for a book club, or even someone who enjoys being fully immersed in their reading experience! I loved all of the printables, the interview, and especially the 'bites and sips' included!

I unfortunately fast-clicked when I requested it, and thought this was the book and not a book club kit. But by now, I read the book and really liked it and the book club kit for sure is a great tool - more books should have something like that!

I haven't read this book yet but I can't wait to do so with this great and bookmark talking points. There’s something wildly fulfilling about sitting in a room (or Zoom square) with people who get it—who light up over the same plot twist, who argue passionately about a morally gray character, who aren’t afraid to say, “That ending? Trash.” I'll make sure to get to this soon.

This is hands down my favorite printable bookmark I’ve ever seen and I will immediately be downloading it. This also has themed recipes which I will be trying with my book club.

A kit for a book club! Really creative and I can’t wait to use this alongside my read of the book. I’ve been meaning to start this for a long time.

What a fun Holiday Romcom 😍
Literally got sucked in from page one! It’s so chaotic and I loved every bit of it!
I mean, I had an inkling I was gonna like it since I read the synopsis… A prince of Halloween, a prince of Christmas, it’s gay, fake competition… you know I’d be interested 😂
Coal gave me such Dee vibes from Voyage Of The Damned! They’re both chaotic, loyal and want to do good and that made me like Coal even more because of that! And Hex needs to drop us them corset links so we can match.

This kit is great for any book club that decides to read this book. It has great talking points and love the recipes as well. Thank you!!!!

This wasn’t what I expected I honestly still do not know what to do with a book club kit. With that being said however, this did lead me to read this wonderful book MM romance story. I absolutely loved it, and I cannot wait to read the next one. 5/5 Stars!

I love holiday books and this one is no different! Using this club kit helped our book club discuss this book in a much more constructive manner.

This was such a joy of an activity/discussion kit. The Nightmare Before Kissmas is already such a fun, unique, light story, but the interview and questions in this kit really showed the depth the author takes these characters, and how real life situations and issues intersect with even the most joyful of times (and holidays!)
The recipes and little games at the end were also perfect for the setting of this book. I can so easily see a Book Club using this as a framework for a fun, cozy, festive get-together.

I hadn’t heard of this book until I saw the book club kit—and now it’s on my library’s order list and in my digital collection! This kit is seriously adorable and so well done.
The author interview, thoughtful discussion questions, and cute bookmarks were all highlights—and don’t even get me started on the cheeky cocktail recipes (Trick or Heat? Yes, please 🍸). Loved the playlist, recs, and sneak peek at the next book too.
Such a fun, aesthetically pleasing resource—can’t wait to check out the rest! 💖📚

I'm definitely using this for my book club (me and my bestie) cause we're reading the nightmare before kissmass next!! Thank you so much!!

While not an actual book I thought this resource guide was perfect! It was a useful tool in my belt for my book club as we read this book.

Super cute & a great resource for a festive holiday romance featuring some of my favorite tropes & two lovable MCs. Writing style was acceptable for the genre.

🎄🖤 Disaster bi icon Nicholas “Coal” Claus is literally the heir to Christmas—and boy, does he make it weird. After tanking the economy (oops?) and drunkenly making out with a hot stranger behind a bar, he finds out said stranger is actually Hex Hallow, heir of Halloween. AND his new fake enemy. Cue the slow burn chaos, magical politics, and daddy (Santa) issues.
I came for cozy holiday romance. I stayed for the emotional gut-punches, queer rep, labor rights, and holiday kingdom drama that felt like The Nightmare Before Christmas met Red, White & Royal Blue and had a glittery, angsty baby.
It’s sweet, smart, and surprisingly deep—with a foundation of grief and healing buried under the tinsel and sexual tension.
