A relative took her kids' favorite six book series and had the kids come up with trivial-pursuit like questions for them. The kids all wrote down questions when they thought of them (the littler kids got help) and she made a game of it when the kids were in the car - an older kid wrote down the questions they came up with.
Once they had enough questions, they split the questions into "categories" that fit - you had to make fairly general "categories" since they were dealing with different book series (e.g., one category was "questions about a main character", another category was "miscellaneous".
All along, the computer literate kids were typing the questions into a spreadsheet (lots of help from parents, but skills were learned by the kids), then they had columns for which category the question went into. You could then play the game digitally, but they decided to print out the questions, Trivial Pursuit style and glue the paper onto index cards. They have occasionally modified or changed the questions - just print the new one out and glue it onto the index cards. The littler ones did the gluing, and even took markers and color coded the questions.
It kept her kids busy, and engaged in their books, plus learned a few computer skills, along with planning and organizational skills. They have kept the spreadsheet going, and occasionally add questions, and have started the same for a few other book series. They use their cards with an old Trivial Pursuit game board and pieces.
They came up with the questions based on what they remembered from the series - and it motivated them to go back and re-read, so they could come up with more questions.
That may be fine for the wizarding folks and all, but for the rest of us it's kinda low-value.
