I have this book but it sits on my never-ending TBR list- after going through this kit, I was extremely antsy to sink my teeth into it. I thought that the kit was one of the better ones I've seen- it has a lot of unique and creative activities, discussion prompts, author information, bookmarks and recipes. I think this kit offers such a great range of diversity in its material and would be perfect if you have a large book club as there will be something sure to entice every member. Really thorough and fun!

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.

Unfortunately, my Book Club did not choose to read this title so I am unable to give adequate feedback at this time. The group chose a more serious novel, otherwise I think this would have been useful.

The questions in this book kit are thoughtful and opens up discussion in your book group. The bookmarks included are cute and will be a draw for any bookmark nerd. I loved the quiz that was part of this, it really helped to further put me into the book.

Love this kit! So helpful to have a fun cocktail recipe and bookmarks to promote the book! Especially love the readalikes.

What a delightful book club kit! I loved the author Q&A - it provided a great starting point for our book club discussion. The cocktail recipe was a great addition for us as well. The list of what to read next fits in perfectly with our group's interests, too! The perfect companion for this book.

This book was different from the books I typically read but it was cute and a lot of fun for me to read. I didn’t read it through netgalley, but I love the book.

I thought the book, "If the Shoe Fits, by Julie Murphy" was included with the Kit. I didn't realize this was only a small booklet of questions that pertain to the novel for a book club.

I am putting three stars as I was unable to read the novel, however, I think the concept of this is a great idea. It should just be more clear that the book isn't actually included in the kit.

What a wonderful kit for a book club! I haven't read the book yet. I wanted to see what was offered and how I can use it. It really had many activities to use and I enjoyed the interview questions and discussion topics,

This is by far my favorite book club kit and the one my book club enjoyed the most. It has such a perfect mix of thoughtful insight about the story and fun activities to make us feel like Cinderella ourselves! I loved the bookmark design, which cut the cover in half. I also thought that the fashion show with Disneybounding was such a fun and unique way to get everyone excited from the beginning of the meeting. I really enjoyed our discussion about some of the prominent themes in this book like fatphobia. What I really wish we had was more cocktail recipes because we loved the one in the kit! I highly recommend this to level up your next book club meeting!

I loved the whole package. I don’t usually like a retelling but this was so good! I just wish there was more interaction between the two

This is a review of the Book Club Kit item for the book If the shoe fits By Julie Murphy. This is a great BCK addition for book club lovers everywhere. Use this supplement as a tool to share the author's wrap-up, Q&A, topics for discussion and concluding thoughts to inspire fanfiction. Great bonus items like bookmarks, fun quiz games to engage the readers. This kit has everything you want from a book. Fairytale fashion, recipes and recommended reads. Thank you @NetGalley for the preview item. Go out and read If the shoe fits By Julie Murphy a modern-day moving Cinderella story. A HEA fairytale, meant to be with lots of sweet heat.

The first book I read in the Meant to Be series was Jasmine Guillory's By the Book. After that, I was hooked! I knew I wanted to check out If the Shoe Fits, by Julie Murphy. I love fairy tales and re-imaginings, particularly when paired with important contemporary topics. The book club guide offers some thoughtful questions and insights into Murphy's process. I enjoyed learning about how she felt drawn to the idea of Cinderella and how she put her own unique spin on the tale. I really enjoy the Meant To Be series and thought this was an excellent book guide. Thank you to We Are Bookish and Netgalley for a free book kit in exchange for honest feedback.

I liked the focus of this book group guide on the retelling aspect and I think it would do a really good job of encouraging discussion around reality TV. I would have loved to have seen more discussion with the author about what's different in moving from YA to adult novels, but I did like the recipes!
