I love these Book Club Kits and especially the ones that include an interview with the author. I am impressed with how well thought out these book club kits are. They always include really great extras, like the videos and the bookmarks. I think they're a great resource for a book club to use. The included discussion questions are perfect for encouraging deeper exploration of the book's characters and themes, and I loved how Netgalley began including this in request. Will definitely use in the near future with my very own book club.
Love that there's this to be the companion for the book. While I've yet to have a copy, knowing this is here will make reading it more enjoyable and insightful.
Beautifuly made book club kit and the contents are great! This kit is very helpfull and can be used as guideline for the discussion, the bookmarks are a really nice add-on! I also loved the recommendations at the end for other indigenous authors!
This is a brilliant book club kit. I appreciate the inclusion of content warnings, letter from and interview with the author, and information about supporting indigenous communities.
WOW! From the get-go it was clear the team has gone above and beyond with this resource! Starting right off the bat with an interview from the author brought a tear to my eye. Indigenous voice are so so important and it was a wonderful to see her culture being highlighted so well.
The discussion guide was wonderful to read through. The questions were thoughtful and insightful and also could be used for a variety of age groups. As this book is YA but with heavier content, it can sometimes be difficult to navigate meaningful conversations in an appropriate way, the questions help to guide conversations in a way that would be age appropriate without losing the depth and breadth of the content.
The bookmarks were stunning and are a beautiful add on that I know any book club member will love to receive during a book club meeting!
Having the sections with "what to read next" and "additional resources" were very nice to see. These topics can often be so complex and multi-layered that one book cannot tell the entire story - giving readers a path to follow on their own journey to gain a deeper understand of the indigenous culture was a beautiful and thoughtful touch.
Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this book club kit!
I teach this book in a middle school literature class and was hoping this would be helpful. It wasn’t really. Thanks for the effort though.
What a beautiful and well-done book club kit! was really helpful to guide our discussion of the Firekeeper's Daughter. The questions were thought provoking. I appreciated the author interview and the book recommendations for other works written by indigenous people. Thank you for the wonderful materials!
I want Netgalley to make these for every book in the world, it's such a nice tool and I really appreciate being able to read words directly from the author.
This has very good information that is very useful. I’m glad there was a list of trigger warnings and resources to call for mental health
Another wonderful book club kit. These kits are really beautiful. I haven't read this book yet, but might do so just to use this kit.
It was great to learn more about the author and about the inspirations behind this novel. I really enjoyed how the discussion focused on multiple identities and how they interact with each other. I loved the printable bookmarks and the inclusion of other indigenous authors to check out next!
This Book Club guide came with great content. Excellent for questions to ask amongst a group or as an individual to get you to think about the reading material. Really enjoyed this extra material. It makes book club planning simple.
this book club kit was an excellent resource and really enhances the experience of reading the book!
This was a book kit that gave me everything I needed to really dive into the book deeper than I would have otherwise.
Thanks first to We Are Bookish and NetGalley for the arc of the Fire Keeper's Daughter Book Club Kit in exchange for my unfettered opinion.
This book club kit includes some beautiful extras to accompany Angeline Boulley's Fire Keeper's Daughter, including printable bookmarks of the gorgeous cover artwork, as well as content warnings, discussion questions, additional reading suggestions, an interview with the author, and more. At 15 pages long, it's a manageable amount of material to share with a book club, and will help spark deeper discussion of the book, its themes, and what it is to be Indigenous in our world. A useful and thoughtful addition to a worthy book club title.
I am so excited to share this book club kit with my local library! They are always looking for helpful guides for engaging with patrons about in stock books. This book has been super popular lately and they will be enthused to have this book club kit.
Absolutely love that this kit has everything needed to host a book club for this book! From the authors notes to the bookmarks it was perfect!
A great companion to a great book, this includes bookmarks, an interview with the amazing author, other books to support the indigenous community, and resources to support those communities.
Thank you NetGalley for this kit! Very cute and informative, I will definitely be checking this book out in the future! :)
I loved this book club kit! This is such a handy tool to have when discussing this novel in book club. The inclusion of the author’s story brings a new light to the background of the book. I really appreciated the recommendations of books to read from other indigenous authors.
