I am seriously OBSESSED with this book club kit!!! It has author interview pages, discussion question pages, good ideas, read next ideas, games…. So many fun things to use with the book!! The bookmarks are so much fun!!

I absolutely loved the Book Club Kit! It's the perfect resource for anyone looking to enhance their reading experience and spark deeper discussions. The kit is well-organized, with insightful discussion questions, author interviews, and thoughtful suggestions for related books. It really helped guide our group's conversation and made the reading experience feel even more engaging. The additional materials, like background information on the book and its themes, provided context that enriched our understanding. Whether you're in a formal book club or just looking to dive deeper into a novel, this kit is a must-have. Highly recommend!

Love it! This is the perfect the kit for a book club! I did suggested it to my book club and they loved it!

This is my first book club kit! I love this kit and all the fun details you receive! Including fun snacks and drinks that are related to the book of choice is so cute! I’m excited for my book club to use this kit next month!!

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.

This was my first book club kit. I really enjoyed working through it. I'm so glad that the suggested discussion questions from the author were there. I would have never thought to look for movie easter eggs. The extras at the end added a nice little touch to it. Cocktails and food is a must a book club meeting, so having suggestions to make it more book centered is great. I also liked the little game at the end. They provided great fun. I especially enjoyed the aesthetic as well. It brought a whole vibe to the pack!

This book club kit is really cute and a good way to get into the series as well. :) My girls and I enjoyed this kit.

Book club kits are so fun and absolutely perfect for any book gathering to discuss a book.
Love that it gives some fun drink recipes and bites as well.
Makes book club meetings go smooth!

This kit was great for a book club with my girls!

I'm always game for a fairytale retelling, and the latest in the Meant to Be series doesn't disappoint; Cordova did a fantastic job.

This was so adorable! Feel good! Reminds me of my teen loves. It was an easy read that kept you going and beautifully written as well! I want to read more of this author!

I thought this was a cute add on for the book and would be great for book clubs. The little bonuses including the cocktail was a cute touch.

My Book club is reading all of the Meant to be collection this month and these are the perfect edition to out book club! I absolutely love having this little resource available.

I can't get over how cute these bookmarks are, they are utter perfection!

Cocktail recipes in a book club kit is perfection, such a cute way to tie in the book!

The quiz is so cute and absolutely getting used for book club!

Another excellent book club kit! It had all the great stuff of the previous kits in this series like trigger warnings, cute bookmarks, and a cute cocktail recipe. I really enjoy the which sister are you quiz, very fun.

This is an awesome resource to go along with reading Kiss the Girl. This series of books is very entertaining as updated and contemporary stories. This particular story is a updated retelling of The Little Mermaid. The materials are a great supplement and provide ample discussion topics for book clubs.

This is one of the best book kits for book clubs I came across lately - it's so beautifully done and it made me even more excited to actually read this book!

This was a great kit. I always enjoy getting to know what authors were thinking when they sat down to write a book, particularly with retellings. I loved how the book club kit highlighted so many elements of Laitne culture, food, music, and culture. The questions were thoughtful. The inclusion of the drink element was fun. This will definitely enhance our book club meeting.

These bookclub kits are an invaluable resource for your book club! Alot goes into running a book club, especially when you want the meetings to be filled with fun games, yummy food, and good conversation. However it's easy when you have access to a book club kit like this one. There are multiple games, quizzes, printable bookmarks, and even recipes for a themed meal and mocktail/cocktail. I especially love that there is an included interview with the author and guided discussion topics for your group. This would be great if you are intimidated by starting your own bookclub and aren't sure where to start

I love these book club kits so much. They make planning our reads and meetings so easy. I do wish they had more elements for a virtual club though. My favorite thing about this kit was the Melody’s Cocktail recipe.

This is such a fun topic for a book; it'd be a great choice for a romance book club, particularly one filled with Disney fans.

Book Club Kit Review: Kiss the Girl by Zoraida Córdova
The Kiss the Girl Book Club Kit, designed by We Are Bookish and sponsored by Disney Publishing Worldwide, provides a rich and interactive resource for readers and book clubs diving into Zoraida Córdova’s modern retelling of The Little Mermaid. This kit is packed with features that enhance the reading experience and encourage engaging group discussions.

What the Kit Includes:

Author Interview: Zoraida Córdova shares her thoughts on the creative process, her personal connection to the original story, and how she approached modernizing Ariel’s tale. This section offers insightful context that helps readers understand the author's vision.

Discussion Questions: Thoughtfully crafted, these questions help prompt deeper conversations. They encourage readers to think critically about themes like Ariel’s search for agency, the expanded role of sisterhood, and the changes Córdova made from the original story, such as developing Ursula’s backstory and shifting Eric’s role.

Fun Extras: There’s a lighthearted personality quiz to help readers discover which of Ariel’s sisters they most resemble, recipes inspired by the book (like empanadas and Melody’s cocktail), and even a lip sync battle activity to bring out everyone's inner pop star.

Strengths of the Kit:

Comprehensive Discussion Prompts: The kit offers a range of discussion questions that explore not only the plot but also the themes and characters. Questions like “In what ways do you see Ariel both losing and finding her voice?” are designed to spark meaningful conversation.

Interactive Activities: The kit adds a layer of fun with activities like the personality quiz and lip sync battle, perfect for lightening the mood in a book club setting and encouraging group bonding.

Extra Reading Recommendations: For those looking to explore similar themes, the kit provides a curated list of additional books, including contemporary romances and other musical-themed stories.

Areas for Improvement:

More Visuals or Design Elements: While the kit is well-organized, it could benefit from more visual content—perhaps character illustrations or artwork to immerse readers more deeply into the world of Kiss the Girl.

More In-Depth Exploration of Themes: Some book clubs may desire even more in-depth analysis, especially around the music industry themes or cultural aspects that Córdova infuses into the story, such as Ariel’s Latina identity and how it influences her character.
