Great material for bookclub discussions! I loved reading about the ideas that brought the Firekeeper’s Daughter to life, and the printable bookmarks look lovely.
Can't wait to use this kit for our bookclub. I enjoyed the discussion items listed to use. I received this book as through NetGalley in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. All of these opinions are my own.
This is a great companion to the book. I love author interviews and the recommendation of books by indigenous authors. This is great for book clubs. I have a book club with friends from around the county and would love to share companion pdfs like this with them
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this digital book club kit. I was not compensated for this review and all opinions are my own.
WONDERFUL!!! The Firekeeper's Daughter is one of our state's young adult book award nominees, and having a book club resource to accompany it is a valuable resource!
Much respect to the author.
Unfortunately, I won't be writing an enormous review as I decided to DNF it.
I think that there's so much potential with this story, but it feels like I don't really fit the target audience for this novel. I don't feel comfortable writing much more as I don't want to affect other people's opinion in a negative way after DNF'ing it, I feel like it wouldn't fit true as I personally couldn't finish it.
I think the author's style is absolutely amazing, I will definitely be looking out for Angeline Boulley's other work.
Brilliant accompaniment to the amazing book Firekeeper’s Daughter, this kit has great ideas for discussion and book club ideas. I think it would be a great one to use for schools too.
Thanks for the opportunity to use this material in exchange for my honest feedback.
I really enjoy these book club kits! They are a great way to get a leg up on bringing engaging questions to your book club and having a great conversation. I wish I had this one for when my work book club read and discussed Firekeeper's Daughter! Thank you Netgalley for my book club kit for Firekeeper's Daughter!
I am a huge fan of this book and am planning to use it for the teen book group at my library during the school year. This kit will definitely be helpful and I think the teens will really enjoy all the extra info!
This Bookclub Kit for the Firekeeper's Daughter was so insightful ! It is so useful and engaging for bookclub discussions.
This is a book I don't usually read, Teens & YA but I was drawn to the cover! Yes, I know "Don't judge a book by its cover!" But something about it was saying read me! Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley and Narrated by Isabella Star LaBlanc..
I enjoyed it and so glad I had a chance to get the audiobook and book to read. Plus it was a great book for my Bookclub which I hold every week with my close friends. They enjoyed this book as well.
The Firekeeper's Daughter covers sexual assault, drug use suicide, death of a loved one, addiction, racism., and "fat phobia" - which this part of the book I hated!
However, this book was hard to get into but stay with it and it's a good read.
I just adore these book kits! I love all the insights and think that they're a wonderful way to enhance the reading experience, and in no way should you miss this particular one!
This is such a fun, engaging book club kit! I love reading interviews with authors, and hearing about what inspired them to write their novel. The included discussion questions are perfect for encouraging deeper exploration of the book's characters and themes, the kit is easily printable/accessible and I loved how Netgalley began including on their sites. Will definitely use in the near future with my very own book club.
I've said it before and I'll say it again : I absoluelty love these kits. I run a book group that is all about the intersectionality of gender, race, class etc where we read fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and plays that dabble in an assortment of genres for ages twelve and up. A kit like this makes it 10x easier to prep for my discussion that month with a sort of guideline for what sort of questions can be asked on top of the author interviews. I also really enjoy the handouts that these kits provide. The book marks and even book related lists are great for patrons wanting more from the book group.
the first few pages of this book club kit include content warnings, details about both the book and the author, and a letter from angeline boulley, the author. also included are printable bookmarks, a discussion guide, book recommendations and resources.
Miigweetch to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this book club kit for Angeline Boulley's "Fire Keeper's Daughter." This was an great resource that I am excited to share with my Not So Serious Book Club! We all really enjoyed this book and it was super cool to be able to read a letter from the author. I enjoyed the interview with Boulley and the discussion guide, as well suggestions on what to read next.
I will look out for other book club kits from We Are Bookish in the future as I found the content warnings and synopsis very useful. Overall excellent addition to any book club discussion of "Firekeeper's Daughter"!
I really love that this book kit was so comprehensive. It had great background information, resources, and even bookmarks! It's a great way to foster discussion for a book club reading this book!
I absolutely loved Firekeeper's Daughter and I think this kit is a great resource to analyse this novel on a deeply level. I particularly enjoy the interview and it's how interesting is it to know how bits of Angeline life came through in the book?! Thank you Netgalley for this kit
Thank you very much for this great book club kit for Firekeeper's Daughter! It was beautifully put together, and everything a book club needs for great discussion! Book club kits really add something special to a book club, allowing fellow bookworms to take home a part of the book with a bookmark. This kit has been especially useful in promoting the book in our collection. I think this kit was wonderful, and printable activities and bookmarks are always a hit, would love to see more kits with take away items. Thank you NetGalley, We Are Bookish, and Macmillan Books. all opinions are my own.
I found this perfect to have along side the book. I love the content warning at the beginning as I feel this is something that should be included in all books.
The book marks are beautiful and I really enjoyed the interview with the author, it made me feel more connected with the book.
This is something that can not only be used in a book club but by individuals as well.
i loved the rep in this book! really enjoyed reading about the cultures, traditions and languages. the romance was also written really well considering this is a YA mystery. the cover is very pretty too!
