This book was great. My typical, and favorite genre to read is adult historical fiction. However, this young adult mystery was a welcome surprise. There were numerous cultural references regarding Native American practices and belief systems. I am now into my three years as a librarian and I am working on diversifying our collection. I have been adding more titles, such as this one to allow readers more freedom of choice when visiting our library. Our adult book club can't wait to read this book. I have this book scheduled for our August book club meeting. I am using the materials provided in the book club kit.
This arc and book club kit was provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

An excellent Guide for book clubs about this particular book. My books club will use this in June when we read this book.

This is a great Book Club source if you are considering or will be discussing this brilliant book. Very good job, staff of We Are Bookish.

And everyone should read this book; I'm recommending it for my book club and will be using this guide to suggest it. Thanks!

Very informative and well put together book club kit. The questions will be very helpful when my book club discusses the book.

I used this book club kit with my book club and we all loved it. The questions were thought-provoking and guided great discussions. I appreciated the content warning page, however, when I looked at this guide I had already known about the sensitive material within the story. I enjoyed reading the interview with the author and it allowed me to bring up additional information/inspiration to the group. We love knowing the how and why of an author and their work. I highly recommend this book club kit to others who are reading this book.

Phenomenal resource for educators or anyone interested in facilitating a book club with The Firekeeper’s Daughter. Bright, clear pages and comprehensive content.

The Firekeeper's Daughter is a book that will stay in my mind long after we finished reading it. Angeline Boulley is truly a master storyteller and it shows in every carefully chosen sentence. Reading her interview was very enlightening, particularly as it relates to doors and windows. I completely understand what she meant about some windows needing to have curtains and choosing what to incorporate and what to keep private and sacred. I love that she is truly a Firekeeper's Daughter! It was interesting to learn about her past job and how she was able to use her storytelling gift in that area as well. This was a very interesting book club kit!

This bookclub kit is amazing! It's perfect to use with my bookclub and has everything I need to help make my monthly bookclub even more fun! This book is so good. Thank you for this extra resource and activities! I love these!

I loved this book and this kit is absolutely amazing. There’s an interview with the author and thought provoking question that will make any book club meetup fun. Printable bookmarks was a nice touch. And I always appreciate recommendations for other books.

This is such a good idea. I loved the discussion questions, author letter and interview. The bookmarks were such a great addition to this kit as well. I can not wait to print them and hand them out at my book club meeting. I printed out the author letter to go with my hardback copy of this book as well.

Thank you NetGalley for sending me this kit in exchange for a review.

This book club kit is a great aid for book clubs or groups on talking about this terrific novel. It will help spark and guide discussion in a thoughtful manner.

So happy there is a kit for this book! ♥️

I read this novel at the beginning of the year and was captivated by the story telling and knew I wanted to include this in my class’s reading curriculum but honestly was struggling with creativity for creating an engaged experience that still handled these topics with sensitivity.

Looking forward to sharing this novel with my students and using the kit to help us all along. The discussion questions are of course great, but also loved the recommendations for books also by indigenous authors and ways to support their community. The author interview was so insightful and impactful!

Wonderfully and deeply thought out pair to the book it's written for! I loved the questions presented here and the effort put into this to make it not only well thought out, but beautiful. I can't wait to go through this and read the books suggested! Great addition!

I absolutely LOVED Firekeeper's Daughter and I can't wait to reread it with my book club.

The interview with Angeline Boulley is my favourite part of this guide. It's always so interesting to hear more an author's creation process!

Glad that this kit suggested some other excellent Indigenous reads and ways to support Indigenous communities.

One of the most stunning novels I read in 2021 was Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley. This debut includes so many themes and nuances, and as a person who is not Indigenous, I found that I learned a lot in reading it. This Book Club Kit adds immensely to the novel. Angeline Boulley's author note and interview both shed light on the personal details that made their way into the book, as well as what she wanted the book to convey to readers - Indigenous or not. The discussions questions are very thought-provoking and sure to inspire long conversations with your book club. This kit also includes printable bookmarks, reading recommendations for other books by Indigenous authors, a list of organizations to support Indigenous communities, and other resources for readers and their loved ones. This is an insightful book kit that further elevates Firekeeper's Daughter.

This was my first time with a Netgalley book club tool kit and I found it very useful and insightful.

I'm not part of a book club so I just used the prompts and questions to help process my thoughts and feelings after finishing the book.

It has a very in depth and thought provoking discussion section which i would definitely recommend for a book club.

This made me very excited to purchase this book. I think that creating book club kits is such a brilliant idea because many people picked up reading during the pandemic while quarantining alone at home. These will allow us to get more involved with the book community and enhance our experiences

First off what a gorgeous Book Club Kit to share with members. I love that there are trigger warning listed front and center. Some members will need it and others can just skip past it. Thanks for the very concise yet descriptive description about the book. I also appreciate the author's biography because she is a debut novelist.

I especially loved the author's note. It gave me the chills. The native language is perfect to see in print right away and then followed up with the knowledge that her father was a firekeeper makes it even more special. I love the line "Only good thoughts and words feed that special fire." If only we could live by that fire within always.

It was great to know that this story came from a love of telling stories to and for her daughter. I love the strong female lead who do not always fit in but mean something in their community. The included interview really showed the reader Boulley's inner workings and purpose. I too picked this as my favorite 2021 cover and appreciated the love and highlight within the kit. So many important issues were addressed and makes the reader think even deeper.

Even after the interview was over, the additional questions to ponder are FANTASTIC! These will be so useful to spawn discussion with the help on the printable discussion guide. Book club members will appreciate the book marks as a take away gift.

Thank you for highlighting Indigenous books that aren't as well known for future reads, covering a variety of age groups. The support and resources section is wonderful and can be very useful for groups looking for a way to give back or delve deeper. Overall superb and extremely useful!

This book club kit is phenomenal! It includes an interview with the author, discussion questions, printable bookmarks that match the book, and trigger warnings.

I absolutely loved the section that has other indigenous authors to read and resources to support indigenous communities. Books can help in creating social change, and this book club guide takes some excellent strides in helping this to happen.

I 100% recommend this book and the book guide that goes with it!

Definitely a great book club kit to help with discussing this book! Firekeeper’s Daughter was nothing short of phenomenal. This contemporary fiction novel is a story told by and about Native Americans, written by Indigenous storyteller Angeline Boulley, specifically highlighting the experiences of Native women. Firekeeper’s Daughter is a thriller that takes place in Michigan’s UP right on the Canadian boarder and the tribal lands in the area. Daunis is such a compelling, badass MC to narrate us through the ups and downs that unfold through this story of community, pain, love, family, and identity. It’s a powerful book that kept me swept up in the story until the very end. I appreciate how much of Indigenous culture and language was infused in the storylines. From hockey to murder to meth to science to navigating biracial and bicultural identities, this novel doesn’t shy away from any topic.
