A great little pack to help you along with a book group.
Would definitely pick this as a book for my book club.

This is a super cute book club kit. It features an interview from the author, as well as an interview from the cover designer which I thought was really interesting. There is a fun recipe inside, as well as questions to think about to discuss the book.

A great story by a talented author. If you are a reader of romance books, this romcom should be right up your alley. I recommend it definitely.

Love the book club template! Makes coming up with questions for your discussion easier! I wish more books had this option.

Thank you Netgalley for providing this extremely helpful book club discussion guide. If By the Book is your on your book club reading lists, this insightful guide provides tidbits into Jasmine Guillorys thought process behind the book, thoughtful discussion questions and even an incredible margarita recipe. This is such a cute book club kit and I wish every book came with one.

I Inadvertently requested not realizing that it was for a Book Club and not the book. I do not belong to a Book Club and do not have the book so this is not applicable to me. I am sure that the kit is useful.

I apologize for my confused excitement at the possibility of reading a Jasmine Guillory ARC!

5/5

This was such a fun addition to our book club! Loved the charcuterie board ideas and the writers exercises and advice! This was one of the best ones I’ve seen!

I love Jasmine Guillory but this was a little lackluster for me.

Grumpy/Sunshine
Forced proximity

I enjoyed the overall story but there was something slightly missing in the characters for me. It was very typical misunderstood "playboy" and FMC who is almost muting herself, scared to follow her dreams or speak up for herself. They are all tropes I don't normally mind, I love grumpy sunshine but this was missing a wow for me. I wouldn't read it again.

By The Book was a cute and fun read and this book club kit was a great addition! Thank you to ARC for this great resource!

I enjoyed this kit very much. When I read books I like when they include extra stuff like an interview from the author about what was going through their head while writing the book. I liked getting to know more about what Jasmine was thinking when it came to creating Isabelle's character and I also like the Q&A part because most of the questions were questions I had myself!

This was so interesting. This was a very different way to get more background on a book, and i really wasn't sure how i would like it in the start, i have to say if i see more of these i will defiantly try and get them. The interviews were my favorite part by far.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of this Book Club Kit

Having the author interview in this book club kit helped to bring me further into the world of the book. I like being able to see what the author has to say about their characters, world, and writing process. Giving writing tips is the perfect way to get future authors further involved in writing.

This book club kit was a great compliment to By the Book. I most enjoyed the interiew with author Jasmine Guillory - it added a behind-the-scenes feel, and provided a great launching pad for book club discussion. I also thought that the Charceteurie How Tos were a fun addition.
