This book club kit was done so well! I loved the water bottle labels! Having a water bottle label went with the recipe section since for drink it suggested water or lemonade. The drinks and food were picked so the reader could feel like they were at Raxter Island. I am a huge fan of book playlists so I was so excited to see the kit included songs to listen to! Also enjoyed the suggestions for what to read and watch.

This was great and I recommend!

Thank you to NetGalley, We Are Bookish publisher and the author for the book club kit!

Great idea for a Kit to accompany The Wilder Girls. Loved the ideas it gave for Reading groups and especially the little quiz of if you would survive.

Nice Interview with the author too.

This book reminded me a lot of a girls version of Lord of the Flies while also reminding me of the show Yellowjackets or the Walking Dead. It’s very different, not at all what I was expecting when I started reading it.

I recently had the opportunity to experience the Book Club Kit for 'Wilder Girls' by Rory Power, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The kit opened my eyes to a whole new way of engaging with book clubs.

I was initially taken aback by the existence of such comprehensive kits for book clubs, and as someone who is actively involved in multiple book clubs, this discovery was nothing short of perfect. The kit not only simplifies the process for book club presidents by providing discussion topics and ideas for the group, but it also offers a wealth of inspiration for additional activities related to the book.

One of the highlights for me was the inclusion of quizzes and thought-provoking questions in the kit. These tools encourage members to reflect on their own experiences with the book and engage in meaningful discussions with the group. The fact that everything is pre-prepared in the kit meant that I didn't have to spend time crafting discussion points, which greatly reduced any anxiety about hosting book club meetings. Its also easy knowing I have it prepared instead of trying to work in time to work it out around work and children.

The level of involvement offered by the Book Club Kit for 'Wilder Girls' is truly impressive, and it has inspired me to incorporate this interactive approach into my book club meetings moving forward. The kit provides a range of options for engagement - from simple coffee discussions to themed events with small prompts like the labels for water bottles.

While I might not personally go as far as labelling water bottles, the creativity and thought behind such details in the kit served as inspiration to think outside the box for future book club gatherings. This flexibility in how to utilize the kit allows for a tailored experience that can cater to different preferences within the group.

Overall, the Book Club Kit for 'Wilder Girls' exceeded my expectations. I am genuinely excited about the idea and concept behind these kits, and I believe they will be a valuable addition to my book clubs in the future which I will definitely be utilizing. Thank you for creating such an amazing resource!

These kits make book club meetings so easy. I love the prepublished questions and book considerations. Honestly a game changer when you’re a busy body but also a book worm.

I read this book about 3 years ago now and I still can remember everything that happened in it. I think this cover is absolutely stunning and the body horror in this book was the perfect amount.

The first thing I noticed about this book club kit was that it was missing trigger warnings. I wouldn’t always see this as a concern, but having read Wilder Girls, I feel like it’s kind of needed for this one. That said, I loved the author interview and was pleasantly surprised with the water bottle labels. It’s not something I would ordinarily think of and usually I’d be looking for bookmarks, but the possibilities with those water bottle labels for a book club meeting is so enticing!

The discussion guide and the quiz were great and I definitely think they’d add so much to a meeting. And, as usual, I’m a huge fan of the book recommendations at the end. I feel like a really great teacher, librarian, or bookstore could do wonders with this for their students!

Wilder Girls by Rory Power is a very interesting novel, in today's standards at least. It is not very often we see a morally-grey female character in fiction. I absolutely adored the writing in this book. Power is incredible at using words to convey very specific emotions using intricate connotations of these words. It is very accurately compared to Lord of the Flies because it explores morals in teens in a very interesting way. Much of the book is characters exploring their personal morals compared to those of others as well as social standards. The setting for this book is incredibly interesting, the character extremely complex and intriguing, and the story progression is just incredible---and every bit of it could be described as untamed or..... *Wild*(er). Definitely would recommend.

I love this book club kit! It's both aestetically pleasing and comprehensive. Gorgeous layout, which includes: an author interview, recommendations for upcoming reads, games, a playlist, recipes and discussion questions. I wish there was a kit like this for all books. I'd be more apt to pick up certain books for my book club. The work is done and looks like the making of a good time.

LOVE THIS!!! Wilder Girls was brilliant, so this bookclub kit was utter perfection!

The interview with Rory Power was so insightful, and definitely raised interesting ideas that I hadn’t considered when reading the book. I think this authors interview was particularly effective, as it also lets the bookclub have more insight, but also to consider discussing the ideas raised.

The discussion guide was great and would definitely provoke some interesting conversations.

And I absolutely adored the playlist!! Would definitely use this as some ambient background music for the bookclub.

Adored this so much, would highly recommend!!
