The Children of Blood and Bone book club kit is a fantastic companion for readers looking to dive deeper into Tomi Adeyemi’s rich, West African-inspired fantasy world. It provides insightful discussion questions that prompt meaningful conversations about the novel’s themes of oppression, resilience, and power, making it an excellent resource for book clubs or individual reflection. The inclusion of background information on the story’s cultural influences helps to further contextualize the narrative, adding depth to the reading experience.

Beyond discussion prompts, the kit features engaging activities and extra content that enhance immersion into the world of Orïsha. My favorite additions were the included recipes and the recommended reading list at the end—both of which provided a great way to continue engaging with the novel’s themes and cultural inspirations. Whether it’s character analyses, thematic explorations, or creative exercises, this book club kit encourages readers to think critically while also having fun. For fans of Children of Blood and Bone, this is a well-rounded and valuable tool for exploring the novel beyond its pages.

I really like this book club kit! What stands out to me the most is the playlist, I know a lot of books come with a playlist, but this one is epic and it fits the book so well. The word search is also a good activity, and timing it is fun to offer prizes to who completes it first. And as always, discussion questions is a great way to engage in a book club.

This book club kit will help me to read Children of Blood and Bone, this kit will help provide analysis and make me think about questions that I otherwise wouldn't have thought of.

It will also allow a more accurate review of the book because I will have been asked questions and this kit will have provided me with an easy to read synopsis.

This Book Club kit is a dream come true! It’s packed with everything needed for an engaging discussion, from insightful questions to an author interview and even drink suggestions. The format is well-organized, making it easy to use while leaving room for personal input. I’d love for more books to have kits like this. Thank you, NetGalley, for this wonderful resource!

I really appreciate a content or trigger list, not every book has it and its very useful.
I think the colors work beautifully however the fonts are very simple like a document, its easy to read but very boring.
its very useful to have a list of her other books so I know what else to add to the tbr

Children of Blood and Bone was recommended to me by a student last year. I have found that it is read widely within our district, and most have loved it. Thanks to We Are Bookish and NetGalley for providing these enriching resources that I can share with my students, especially the author interview and recommended additional reading. I appreciate all of these fantastic kits!

The book club kit for Children of Blood and Bone provided by We Are Bookish is an incredible companion resource. It offers a diverse range of materials that enhance the reading experience and make discussions even more engaging.
One of the standout features is the variety of options included discussion questions and author interviews are particularly thoughtful, sparking meaningful conversations and providing deeper insights into the book. The menu, complete with drink and food suggestions inspired by the story, adds a creative and immersive touch.
I also loved the interactive elements like the word search and games, which bring an extra layer of fun to the book club experience. The inclusion of beautifully designed bookmarks was another delightful bonus.
Overall, this kit is a brilliant concept, and I’m excited to see what future book club kits will offer. It’s a fantastic way to bring stories to life and foster a sense of community among readers.

This is a wonderful bookclub kit!
It is very organised with the table of contents.
Personally I would have preferred the discussion questions to be more based on chapters, so that it’s easier to discuss certain aspects during the reading process.
I absolutely love the bookmarks. I printed them and used them for the book right away, one can never have enough bookmarks.
The idea of having snacks and drinks is super interesting, however I was not able to acquire some of the ingredients, I can’t fault the kit for that though.
I also liked that there was a wordsearch, but I wish that could have been on a white slide to save my printer unnecessary ink.
All in all I think this kit is well thought out and has a lot to offer, but could still be improved.

THE KIT - I loved the Q&A with Tomi Adeyemi. While reading the book, I thought it was interesting that there were 3 POVs even though there are 4 leading characters. So I was surprised and delighted to hear how it started as a dual POV until the author realized she needed Amari's perspective. That unplanned change made this really special because it's simultaneously a story of two girls from opposite worlds and two romantic enemies.

I really liked the included activities (I am a Tider!!). I wish the discussion portion included a list of the different Orisha powers. There were so many in the book and since I listened to the audiobook they were difficult to track. It would help in the discussion of fantasy to have those details.
