Julie Murphy's books aare always a hit or miss but this was definitely a hit --- especially after I reflected upon the book with he discussion questions from this kit. It added a layer of depth to our conversation and made exploring the book even more enjoyable. Definitely recommend to check it out!

This is a great idea to assist book clubs. While I don't currently participate in a book club I wanted to see what this included.
This kit did exactly what was expected. It is cute, fun and functional. I would defiantly recommend.

I love this kit so much! I love the discussion prompts, the quiz and the challenges. Definitely want to decorate my own glass slipper! I also love that it comes with a pizza and drink recipe. This kit includes everything to have the perfect book club night. An amazing and thought provoking book club kit for If The Show Fits bt Julie Murphy!

Amazing book club kit for Julie Murphy's IF SHE SHOE FITS from We Are Bookish/NetGalley! This book club kit contains everything to read, discuss and enhance your reading and book clubs experience. It comes with bookmarks, recipies and author interviews! Definitely recommend to use this for book club meetings!

This book club kit will help me to read If the Shoe Fits, 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.

Super fun idea!! I'll be doing this with my friends for our April bookclub. Can't wait to play book bingo!

charming, feel-good romantic comedy that delivers both heart and humor with a dash of fairy-tale magic. The novel centers around Cindy, a plus-size fashion designer who unexpectedly finds herself competing for a coveted spot on a reality dating show. As she steps into the world of glittering glamour and larger-than-life personalities, Cindy must navigate the highs and lows of public life while staying true to herself.
Murphy, known for her knack for writing authentic, body-positive characters, brings Cindy to life with depth and wit. Cindy is a breath of fresh air—confident, kind, and unapologetically herself in a world that often sidelines people who don’t fit conventional beauty standards. The beauty of If the Shoe Fits lies not only in the romance but also in Cindy’s journey of self-empowerment, self-love, and navigating societal expectations.
The romance, which blooms in the midst of the reality show chaos, is sweet, slow-burning, and filled with tension, making it impossible not to root for the couple. The love story unfolds against the backdrop of a bright and colorful world, with a perfect blend of humor and vulnerability that keeps the pages turning.
What makes If the Shoe Fits even more enjoyable is its clever commentary on fame, the pressure of social media, and the superficial aspects of reality TV. Through Cindy’s eyes, the reader is reminded of the importance of staying true to oneself, even when the world seems fixated on the surface.
Julie Murphy’s writing is engaging and accessible, making this book an easy and delightful read.
The book club kit was delightful and made reading the book more delightful.

Julie Murphy absolutely never misses for me. Feeling very emotional right now about the amount of comfort and joy her books bring me and this was no exception.
me: I'm kinda sick of Cinderella retellings
Julie Murphy: here's my first Adult novel and it is a Cinderella retelling with a plus-size main character
me: SIGN ME UP!!!

I love this kit so much! My book club will be reading If The Shoe Fits in January. The bookmarks are great, colorful and fun. I love the discussion prompts, the quiz and the challenges. Definitely want to decorate my own glass slipper! I also love that it comes with a pizza and drink recipe. This kit includes everything to have the perfect book club night.

The Book Club Kit for If the Shoe Fits by Julie Murphy was a phenomenal addition to reading this book with friends! The interview with the author gave amazing insight into Murphy’s development of the characters and her thinking in writing the book. These additional pieces provided amazing context and really made us think about the characters deeply. However, my favorite part of this kit was the activities. I had so much fun with the Before Midnight quiz and the bingo card. It added a new experience to book club that was outside of the normal discussion questions and kept people engaged. I really appreciated the list of books at the end and even added several of them to my wish list! This was a fantastic addition to the book, and I am grateful to We Are Bookish for making this, and also looking forward to trying the pizza recipe!

I thought this was the book. Kind of disappointment but I should have paid more attention when signing up.

The book club kit for *If the Shoe Fits* by Julie Murphy is the perfect companion to this delightful, feel-good read! As my third book club kit, I was again impressed by how thoughtfully designed it is to enhance the reading experience. The kit includes a great mix of discussion prompts, fun activities, and deeper insights into the story’s themes of self-acceptance and finding your own path. I especially loved the questions that prompted me to think about how the book’s modern take on fairy tales resonates with real-world issues. It’s an engaging way to dive into the characters’ journeys and explore their motivations in a more interactive and meaningful way. Whether you’re reading with friends or in a formal book club, this kit offers a great way to connect with the book and each other!
