The information is very well detailed and presented, I am interested in reading the book. There are some great points in the kit, looking forward to discussing the topics.

Wow! What a glamorous & instructive book club kit - from cocktails in the book to reference materials to paper cutting tutorials - this short guide has it all. I’ve already been convincing everyone I know to read The Chosen and The Beautiful as it is the culmination of my teenage queer, mixed race, Prohibition-obsessed dreams. Grateful to all the stars for aligning that Nghi Vo gave us this. Thanks to Tor & Netgalley for the sneak peak at this kit!

What a great extra for a fantastic book! With really thoughtful discussion questions, essays giving historical background on the book, recipes for 1920s-themed cocktails, and an arts-and-crafts activities section with papercutting instructions and templates, this bookclub kit has it all.

A beautiful book club kit for The Chosen and the Beautiful. It features discussion questions, historical context, fun drink recipes, and section on the art of paper-cutting. A fantastic resource for book clubs!

This is a really useful guide to accompany a book club's discussion of a book. It includes informative pieces about history that I wouldn't have known otherwise with unique insights into Asian culture. There are also fun drink recipes - which I think lend themself to the time period of this book. I am really looking forward to reading this book now.

I did not realize this was only a kit when I downloaded it. It's not of any use to me without the book. Cheers.
