Ich habe mich über das Buch sehr gefreut. Es ist nicht nur fließend zum lesen sondern auch sehr spannend.

This book kit is perfect. Everything. The order, the interview with both author and cover designer!

I couldn't ask for a better kit.

I downloaded all 4 of these and absolutely LOVE them!! It’s definitely on my Bookclub list if I end up reading these during Bookclub!

Out of all the Book Club Kits by We Are Bookish, this one is by far my favorite! It seems like there was more to this one, more content to read from the author, and there also seemed to be more questions to go through with the group! The coordinating bookmarks were a perfect addition, as well as the writing advice from the author that accompanies the creative writing prompt... That was our favorite part! As always, there are recipes included which related to the book, a charcuterie board and sparkling rose margaritas which were a hit! We thoroughly enjoyed this book club kit and would definitely recommend it.

I adore these book kits. This particular book kit (for By the Book) had charcuterie board ideas, printable bookmarks, what to read next book suggestions, discussion questions and so much more! This is such a wonderful resource if you're planning a book club meetup.

I absolutely adore these book club kits and have a soft spot for a well-done Disney retelling. The inclusion of a content warning in this kit is a fantastic touch; I think more books should have these at the beginning. The discussion questions are always a highlight for me. Since I’m not the most creative when it comes to sparking conversations, these questions are incredibly helpful for guiding our book club discussions.

This was my favorite book club kit so far. They gave you pen name generator, writing exercises and more. I love using these as an add on to the book. It helps with the reading experience.

The "By the Book" book club kit by Jasmine Guillory is a fantastic resource for readers and discussion groups. It includes an author interview, discussion questions, and additional materials to enrich the reading experience. This downloadable and printable kit, sponsored by Disney Publishing Worldwide, is not the actual book but a supplement to enhance your book club meetings.

In reviewing the kit, consider whether it met your expectations. Did it provide the necessary elements for a fruitful discussion? Were there any components your group felt were missing? Highlight what you found enjoyable and useful, as well as any parts that fell short. This feedback is crucial for improving future kits.

The book itself is a fresh take on a classic fairy tale. Isabelle, a young editorial assistant, feels lost and overworked

This Book Club Kit is absolutely beautiful, and I love every bit of it -- especially the recipes, bookmarks, and the interview with the cover artist was so intriguing!

I was unfortunately unable to get an advance reader copy for By the Book; therefore, I can't really comment on the book club kit. However, I've heard wonderful things about Jasmine Guillory and will hopefully get an advance reader copy or a future book of hers. Thank you.

This book is super fun to read and the book club kit is a great addition. I read this on my own, but having a kit available will make me try some of the other books that have a kit with my book club or as a buddy read with a friend.

Contains bookmarks, author interview and discussion questions. Really Informative and contains some bookish activities. Great for book clubs with a book of the month.

Fantastic kit for use in book club meetings. We struggle with discussing the book (we usually say a few worked about it and then start chatting about anything in general) and this will help us to stay on track.

Excellent supplement for By the Book by Jasmine Guillory. Would definitely recommend using this kit along with the book.

I absolutely love this tool!
The writing exercises get you thinking and reimagining things that happened in your childhood that you wouldn’t have thought to remember! So nostalgic! If you’d ever considered starting writing the tips are a really good way to start!
I love the charcuterie board ideas along with the drinks recipes! Makes for a good evening with the girls for book club! Definitely adding this and the book to our list!!
Then all the recommendations at the end… my TBR list just got even longer!

This was an amazing Book Club Kit! There were so many fun activities included and more information about the author!
I loved that it included charcuterie board ideas and tips on how to make the perfect charcuterie board! And the rosé margarita recipe was fabulous! These are the ideal foods I think of when I think of book clubs.
The Pen Name Generator was such a fun activity! And the writing exercises were great and are questions that would create great discussion.
I highly recommend this book club kit!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the book club kit.

Beauty & the Beast being one of my favorite Disney films, I was instantly drawn to this one. It made me want to read it. I'm glad the content varies from one book club kit to another. There were some exciting sections in this one.

So I was thinking maybe the book plus questions and discussions at the end. I guess my eyes skipped where it says? While the book itself isn't there, there were the questions and discussions. There were also a couple book marks and some recipes which I thought was cute. It's a cute idea for a book club

Super cute kit for any book club! Comes with everything you need to have discussion and maybe a party too!
