I love these book club kits! This one includes an author interview, discussion questions, bookmarks specific to the book, foods and drinks that go with the book, documentaries to be watched to add to the experience, what to read next, and an about the author section. These can add to the experience of reading the book, and questions to help further think about the story. It is nice to read with a bookmark that "matches" the story, especially when you can share food and drink with friends during the discussions.
I highly recommend using the book club kits whenever they are available, especially when they come from We Are Bookish!
I was given the opportunity to try the Book Club Kit for Murder by Cheesecake, by NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this free copy.
This was such a fun companion book to Murder by Cheesecake. The questions inside were fun to go over and made you think deeper about the plot, also fun discussion points to talk about with friends. The book also came with cute, printable, book themed book marks! Highly recommend this book for those who enjoyed Death by Cheesecake by Rachel Ekstrom!

Great discussion questions, plus, I love the bookmarks, recipes, the minute mystery, and other recommended titles.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an advanced reader copy of this book. Although I love The Golden Girls, I did not receive an ARC for the actual book Murder by Cheesecake, and therefore I did not want to expose myself to spoilers by reading the book club kit.

This was a cute little edition for book club, very happy with these little prompts. Happy to have these in the club and will be using them to review the books requested.

This was great fun and a wonderful accompaniment to a silly and endearing book. I loved everything that was included and enjoyed discussing with my book club.

This book club kit was fantastic! Our group fell in love with the bookmarks, drink recipes, and the cheesecake! I would love to use more of these with our group in the future because it was easy to follow and make memories with the group!

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of this book club kit.
This was a really fun kit. I will definitely be sharing it with my book club

This book kit is brilliant. I actually struggled to finish the book itself, because of POV issues. But the book kit has everything I ever wanted an author or publisher to send me as a blogging book reviewer. I don’t have a book review blog right now, because mine kept getting hacked. 🙄. If someone could solve that problem for book reviewers, I, for one, would be grateful. At this time, I only have Twitter and Goodreads. In any case, this kit seems very complete for a book club and fantastic for any book blogger. The interview, the games, and the recipes were all things I would use on my blog, if I still had one. The book marks are great too, that and a free ebook giveaway would be just perfect. I could totally see us laughing and eating cheesecake over this kit.

I love when book club kits drop, and this one? Total gold. ✨ From the start, you can tell it was thoughtfully put together with all the extras that make a book club night feel like a whole event.
It includes an author interview and Q&A, themed activities (hello, Which Golden Girl are you?—I’m totally a Blanche, obviously), drink recipes for every vibe, and the iconic cheesecake recipe straight from the book. You could truly turn this into a full-fledged themed night with your girls.
I also appreciated the bonus content: author info, other books to check out, and recs for your next read if you loved this one. It’s perfect for anyone wanting to spice up their book club or just host a cozy, creative night in.
10/10 would plan an entire evening around this. 🍰📚🥂

Great book club guide for my friends and I as we read this novel. We really enjoyed it and recommend it to any Golden girls fan

Beautifully done! I have never seen a book club kit before and this seemed like the perfect book to start with. I would love to have friends read this book then we can have a fully immersive meeting with cheesecake and drinks! I greatly appreciate the links to non-alcoholic versions of the drinks as I have friends and family in recovery. I cannot think of anything that I would want to add to this kit, it is great!

This will be great when I have my book group meet to discuss this book. Thank you fo the helpful materials

Honest, I did not read that it was a pack of supplies to read this book basically which was a little confusing. But that is on me.

Great resource for publicizing this book! It's an asset to be able to deepen the conversation and provide context for the novel.

This kit is great. Helps with the talking points, book clubs, and social media platforms. I highly recommend if you need it.

Really nice laid out info for Bookclub meetings and info. If you struggle with trying to come up with ideas for your meeting this was really nice

As a longtime Golden Girls fan, I couldn’t resist diving into Murder by Cheesecake. The concept alone—Dorothy and the gang solving a murder involving cheesecake? Yes, please.
The author does a great job capturing the voice and charm of each character. Dorothy’s sarcasm, Rose’s rambling stories about St. Olaf, Blanche’s flirtiness, and Sophia’s one-liners all felt spot-on and brought a big dose of nostalgic joy. I found myself smiling more often than not, especially in the dialogue-heavy scenes.
The mystery itself was light and quirky, which fits the tone of the book, but the pacing dragged in the middle. Still, I appreciated the nods to classic mystery tropes, and the final reveal had a fun twist.
This is definitely a read for fans of the show—it plays to that audience with love and plenty of inside jokes. If you're looking for a deep mystery, this might not hit the mark. But if you're here for a cozy, clever return to Miami with our four fabulous ladies? You’ll enjoy the ride.

OMG who did not like the Golden Girls. Now they have mystery books. Our group will be using this packet for our upcoming group and we are so excited to share in the bookmarks and the discussion questions.

This is super cute! I've not read the book yet so I admit I flipped past some pages to avoid spoilers about the mystery, but I really love these We Are Bookish Book Club Kits and wanted to check this one out! Super cute bookmarks, recipes. All just very celebratory and eventful in how it's put together.
