Hey, do you like free books? Do you like free coffee from Starbucks?  Do you have a nook or similar E-reading device?

Well Sure you do.

Both Barnes and Noble and Borders are giving away free e-books on their websites. And not just books in the free domain though those are there too.  I saw a few big name sellers like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and a James Patterson book.  Not really my thing but its there.  The weirdest one I saw was a short story.  I’m not quite sure what I feel about short stories being sold or given away without any other works attached to them quite yet.  (More on that later)

Anyways download a free book, take your device to a Starbucks in a Barnes and Nobles, show the kid behind the counter that you have downloaded the book using the BN E-reader, and then the kid will give you a free tall coffee.
