Cool but I felt like I really couldn’t use it properly without the actual book so as pretty as it is I won’t be using it I don’t think.
I honestly love that there are bookclub kits for people to use especially this one! The content and spoiler warnings are so necessary in books today and I hope we continue to see more of this. Good discussion questions. The printable bookmarks are such a fun touch!
This book club kit was great to follow along. I love all Christina Lauren books and this was a super cute book kit.thanks Netgalley for sending the ARC!
a cute book club kit! i cant wait to read. this books looks amazing. thank you for sending me this! i love all of christina laurens books so i am so excited
Love this book club kits, with details and point about the books. Things to do and recipe to try will work with any book club and help everyone to be engage! I would love to see more kits like this!
This book club set was adorable and perfect. The bookmarks were a cute touch and the premade set kit was perfect with already set discussion questions. While I didn't try the cocktail it was a really cute way to tie in the theme of the night with the story. The game was a nice way to break up the night and start further discussions and the craft idea was such a clever idea.
I think that if more book club kits were done this way, they would get a lot of use!
Good questions and talking points. Really helpful thank you for providing this. I like more of these please
This book club kit was fantastic! I loved the recipes that were included and the discussion points were easy to follow. I think this is a great guide to use for any size of book club!
I loved this book! Such a sweet love story and I loved the modern take on Disney’s Tangled, one of my favorites.
Insofar as a book club kit is concerned, I liked the content and extras that were included in this one. The author interview, bookmarks, and recipes were a fun, unexpected addition. And I thought the “Create your Own Flower Crown” activity was also a great way to tie in the book to a pertinent activity. Overall, I’d love to see more kits like this one!
The Tangled Up in You book kit is is AMAZING!!! I'm in two book clubs and wish every book came with a book kit. The kit included questions, printable book marks, food and drink recipes, directions on how to make a flower crown, and SO much more! Absolutely obsessed with this kit!!!
Hoping to use it at one of my future book club meetups!
The FREE book kit can be found on the ChristinaLauren website!
This Book Club Kit is great! It includes fun things like printable bookmarks, cocktail recipes, food/snack suggestions, craft ideas, and a fun "this or that" activity. This is so creative and fun for a book club gathering.
I appreciate the publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to read this book club kit in exchange for an honest review.
Delighted to have this as an accompaniment for the book. The various elements are great, as opposed to it just being a simple list of questions.
Our book club recently had the pleasure of using the Tool Kit provided for our discussion of "Tangled Up in You" by Christina Lauren, and it was incredibly helpful in our experience. Here's a detailed review of how the kit met our expectations and contributed to our meeting.
Meeting Expectations:
The Tool Kit provided everything our book club needed to dive deep into the themes, characters, and plot of "Tangled Up in You." The discussion questions were thought-provoking and sparked lively conversations. They helped us explore the nuances of the book, compare it with the original tale, and appreciate the unique elements that Christina Lauren brought to her retelling.
Content and Elements:
Discussion Questions: The questions were well-crafted and covered a broad range of topics, from character development to thematic elements. They helped guide our conversation and ensured that we touched on all the key points of the book.
Favorite Elements: The questions about the changes made to the original story and how they modernized the tale were particularly engaging. They allowed us to appreciate the creativity and thought that went into the retelling.
Character Exploration: The focus on character arcs and agency, especially with Ren's journey, provided a deeper understanding of her development and the dynamics between her and other characters.
Less Useful Content:
While most of the content was extremely useful, a few of the questions seemed a bit repetitive. For instance, questions 4 and 8 both touched on the characters' relationships and personal growth, which led to some overlap in our discussions. However, this did not detract significantly from the overall usefulness of the kit.
Suggestions for Improvement:
Including a few more activities or interactive elements could make the kit even more engaging. For example, a character map or timeline of events could help visual learners better understand the plot and relationships.
Adding some multimedia content, such as links to interviews with the authors or fan art, could provide additional layers of engagement.
Who Would Benefit:
This kit is perfect for any book club looking to delve deeper into a modern retelling of a classic tale. It's especially suited for groups that enjoy discussing character development, plot structure, and thematic elements in detail. Whether you're long-time fans of Christina Lauren or new to their work, this kit will undoubtedly enhance your reading experience.
Overall, the Tool Kit was a valuable resource that significantly enhanced our book club's discussion of "Tangled Up in You." We look forward to using similar kits for our future reads and appreciate the effort that went into creating such a comprehensive and engaging set of materials.
This is a great tool to use for the many book clubs I attend. Often we tend to just give our opinions and not really get into the nitty gritty. I appreciate having some direction to be able to lead a better discussion. Thank you!
Anything by the two and only greatest combo of all time Christina Lauren you can’t go wrong with. This extra feature after reading the book was actually pretty cool and something different! Would love to see more of this!
I really like this flayer. I will use to my moth book club. We all love princess and I did not know about all the over books except of the Cristina Lauren one. Really exited for the Beauty & Beast one.
This is a really cute idea! I loved the interview with the author, and all the discussion points were well thought out. Also, I absolutely adored the recipes and the bookmarks! So cute <3
