Love this!! Can’t wait to share with my book club. So many cute activities! I was smiling the whole way through, and now I absolutely cannot wait to share it with my book club.

The kit is great! It has good questions for discussions and I love the bookmarks. The interview with the author was also enjoyable. I like how the cheesecake recipe was in there. That will be a big hit at my next book club! LOVED the book and this kit makes it even more enjoyable.

This was great! It really added to my enjoyment of the book. I did a buddy read with a friend and we had fun going through the kit together. I really liked the recipes... especially for the (in)famous cheesecake!

Things are heating up, and not just because of Blanche’s hot flashes. Rose’s cousin is eloping to Miami, and Rose is playing host. If she can't balance the groom’s family’s snobbery against the traditional St. Olaf wedding week guidelines, her hometown may never accept her cousin again!

Dorothy quickly realizes she needs a date with whom she can exchange wedding-related wisecracks. Turning to a newfangled VHS dating service, she believes she’s found the ideal conversationalist. Unfortunately, what looks good on TV can actually be a total jerk in real life. It seems she’ll just have to enjoy the company of Sophia, Blanche, and whomever Blanche has targeted for a hookup.

As the Girls all pitch in, Rose is thrilled that the tea-and-fish-themed kickoff event is perfect, not a herring out of place. That is until Dorothy’s date is found dead—face-planted in an otherwise scrumptious-looking cheesecake. With every guest a suspect (especially Dorothy) and a marriage on the line, the four besties must ID the real killer, get the should-be-happy couple down the aisle, and make sure nobody from St. Olaf gets lost in the wilds of Miami. It’s up to the Golden Girls to sleuth out a way for friendship and love to win the day!

The kit is perfect for book clubs - it took all of the stress out of planning and gave us the perfect amount of content to really facilitate activity and conversation with one another over the title

Great book club kit! The discussion questions are always a hit, as that is one less thing we have to "put thought into" when scheduling bookclub meetings. Of course added questions are great, but these were some really good questions. Loved the printable bookmarks as well, they are amazing when laminated.

The kit is very thorough and will be useful for book club discussions. Lots of good information in it, including the interview with the author.

Thank you We Are Bookish for this incentive kit. This book club kit was well thought out and put together. It includes an author interview and questions, activities, bookmarks, drink recipes, and the famed cheesecake recipe from the book, to make the book club meeting a full fledged event.

This is such a fun addition to the book! I especially love the bookmarks. Given the pop culture reference, this book is a perfect book club book. Even if people are picking it up solely for The Golden Girls nostalgia, this adds to the experience. I can see this book and book club kit being used for a girl's night or girl's weekend.

Thank you to Net Galley for providing this book club kit for my use.

I am very excited about this book, can't wait to get a copy to read. This book club kit has me even more excited. Great combination of author interviews, recipes and fun things to do with a book club.

5 stars.

I found this to be a helpful tool for book clubs. I do belong to a book club; however, I wasn't able to download the actual book, which was disappointing. I also could not download the NetGalley Shelf App. I will continue reading on my Kindle.

Thank you for the opportunity to review this book club kit. I believe this will be quite useful to book clubs.

I value the relationship with NewGalley along with the opportunity to read advanced copies of books that are of interest to me.

What a great resource for book clubs! A perfect grab and go, it has everything you need to run a successful and very fun book club. I loved that it included a couple different activities for different levels of knowledge about the show and involvement, this could easily be adapted for online clubs as well as in person. Finally, my favorite inclusion is the read-alikes and other book suggestions that could be used for suggestions during the club, or for exploring other genres/authors in future book clubs. What are book clubs for if not adding more to that ever-growing TBR list ;) !

I haven't read the book yet, but this book club kit is so cute and adorable. Having some drinks and food to make that was inspired by the show and book is amazing. The questions are great to keep the discussion of the book going and to also give some starting points if struggling to get going. Also having some bookmarks you can print to go along with the book is wonderful.

A super fun addition to an equally fun book. I loved the recipes in this kit, I plan to try a few. I also really loved the book suggestions that were included, as well, because they tie in to the vibe of this book!

Thank you to NetGalley and We Are Bookish for this book club kit.
