Starbucks Coffee

I am anxious to be in a book club in my area.  To enjoy starbucks and a great book.  I want to find out more.

What a great idea!

Sounds great -- and free coffee never goes over poorly.

that sounds like an awesome idea; surprised it hasn't happened much sooner!

I would love to participate in this!  I have two Starbucks by my house and I think this would be great!  Thank you.

Great idea!

Opps.. I just read the rules and I posted on the partners site. I just had my last day last friday so I guess I am a customer now. Opps. Still want to participate but now don't know where to enter.

Had to try three different computers and two different accounts to get access (I used to have a partner account but I don't work at Sbux anymore, so when it asked for my partner number I didn't have one... and then it denied me access to the site, even to log out, after that) but here I am! Sounds like fun, can't wait to read the book.

I'd love this! Thanks! Pattie

I love this idea! What a great direction for Starbucks to take!! Good job!

Always great to find new book ideas from Starbucks.  In addition to the "national" recommendation this program represents, why not look at ways to also have the book clubs make "local" recommendations of good things to read and discuss at Starbucks.  This does not enable the business models of "selling" the books at Starbucks, but could promote sales at local bookstores.  Also the uber business issue is to get people to come more frequently to the "third place" and not just purchase the book, right?  Good luck with the program.

I think this is such a fantastic idea! It just seems like such a natural pairing.

Love this idea too!   I look forward to reading!

DITTO!!!!  can't wait to connect with other peeps and discover new corners of the world ...: )

awesome!

Would love to participate.  Thanks for sharing the news about this great new program.

have been itching to start a book club.

would love to start a book club!

i'm all about the book club!

I, too, would love a kit please!

I'd like to start a book club and would love a starter kit.

I think this is a fantastic idea! I would love to meet new people at my local Starbucks to discuss books!

I would love a kit!  How do I go about getting mine??

What a fun idea! I love this site and would love to take part in this as well!

Did I make it?

I certainly agree that coffee and books go well together.  Though, I'd be more interested if you'd branch the book club idea out a bit; offer kits/clubs for different genres of book.  I'd love to be able to discuss what I'm reading with other people, but I don't read typical book club fare.

i would likt to find out more about a book club in my community (Tulsa.OK.)  

I would LOVE to launch this book club here in Boston!

This is a totally cool idea.  We always like to get together to go shopping, etc.  In these tough economic times we could now get together.....discuss the book and enjoy coffee.  A fixed amount of money will be needed and we can all still do something together.  I think that I am not one of the 25 FIRST posts, however, I would love this starter kit and I would do it proud.  Please send me one:)

Ok.....I missed it.  I will buy it, however...where?

Hmm.. Think I missed it as well. Bummer.

Looking forward to reading the book!  Some of my partners were talking about a book club and this is a great idea!  My cafe stays pretty crowded but I love the idea!  Maybe more chairs!!!!

I bought this book yesterday. I couldn't put it down. I even blogged about it here...  deannathompson.blogspot.com

The book club sounds great. I will have to look into it further.

I'd love to get one of these starter kits, since you possibly have some left. Thanks!

I wouldlove to get one of these starter kits if they are still available. I have been thinking of doing a book club. so this would be perfect! Thanks

I would love a book kit, I am in college and my friends and I area always wanting to have a book club but have no money!

Can't wait to get it. I read some reviews on the book and it sounds fab.

Hey, are there still any sets available?  We'd love to get reading here in Cape Coral, FL!

I just discovered this, and am so excited to get involved!  Reading is one of my favorite things to do in my leisure time.  Would love to get our Starbucks community involved!  Let's go!

Hi,

I will we could have this avaliable inCanada....  Maybe I'll find it at Chapters...

Awesome!!!  

This is a wonderful idea - I look forward to the next selection.

Hi, I am a Reading Coach at a elementary school in Florida. I help struggling readers find a love for Reading. I teach 2-4th graders. Our goal for the year is to read 1,000 books. They are currently at 600. This is a BIG accomplishment for struggling readers. Our class is called StarBooks..a play on one of my favorite places..you guessed it! :-)

Anyway, I am looking for a cool way to reward them for reaching thier goal. Any ideas. Do you think the local Starbucks would donate items for a class party or are their any grants out there. We have a wall with a StarBooks logo where they sign thier name for every book they read...it is looking awesome. Would appreciate any ideas for rewarding thier hard work.
