From Tracks to Apps to Chapters
The Starbucks Pick of the Week started off offering free music tracks. Three years later, mobile apps were added to the mix.
Now three weeks after apps were added, chapters from books are now part of the Pick of the Week program. For this week, you can get an extended sample of The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. Use the code found on cards at Starbucks locations and download your free chapter from within iBooks (or at home using iTunes). After a minute or two, check your library.
And there is no relation between author Erin and the Mortal Instruments’ Clary Fray/Fairchild/Morgenstern. But what a coincidence with the Morgenstern surname.

Hey, which apps did you happen to get? I got the SPY Mouse one, but I was just curious which other ones they gave away.

Shazam Encore was the first followed by SPY Mouse. Haven’t seen any other app yet.
