Well, if Howard Likes It...
When it comes to book clubs, is Starbucks the new Oprah? I’m thinking maybe so. Even its picks are sounding kinda ... Oprah-ish. From Access Hollywood:
The second selection in the coffee chain’s book program, A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier, is an emotional story of hope and redemption by [Ishmael] Beah, who gives a first-hand account of fighting as a boy in the war-torn country of Sierra Leone.Even Starbucks chairman Howard Schultz got into the act:
“This is one of the most gripping books I have ever read. We were all inspired by this tale of determination and hope and knew it was an important book to share with our customers.”
