Literary Starbucks

We honestly try to match the character or author’s personality to their drink order, unless what they order is specifically tied to the joke.

Captain America orders an americano, Tony Stark orders off his own secret menu that he designed himself. They’re all really complicated frappuccinos with tons of different flavors but like 5 shots of expresso in each. Cap is appalled at Tony’s inability to just order off the regular menu. Tony buys out Starbucks and tells the baristas not to serve anything to Bucky Barnes. Boom. Civil War.

Also the baristas* have cut Clint Barton off from any more caffeine because he was coming in three times each morning.

*it was Kate Bishop and she paid them off

There’s a Beatrice and Benedick post HERE and there’s also one in the BOOK that is a direct parody of some of their dialogue from the last scene of the play!

First of all, we’re super touched you took the time to write this message! We always appreciate kind and positive responses from readers; we’re happy that you loved the book and have loved the blog as well.

As for posting on this blog, I think I said it best in our interview with the local newspaper in our college town: "There will never be an official ‘farewell’ post on the Tumblr site, but [we] have all moved into a stage where [we] are not obligated or capable of posting with regularity. At this point, we write posts when we feel particularly inspired by an author, character or now a work itself. It’s no longer a site to be checked daily, but we want people to keep coming back periodically to see what has struck our fancy in the interim, or just to revisit your favorite orders from the past.”

We love Literary Starbucks, and while it will always be a part of our lives and our history, we feel that the book is sort of the ultimate manifestation of these two years. Again, this is not a goodbye post-- I just published a new order not ten minutes ago!-- but it is a heads’ up of what this blog will look like moving forward.

Love always,

Jill (& Nora & Wilson)

We saved Faulkner’s order for the book! :)

The true English major experience: Procrastinating by Reading

As good a time as any to remind folks of the index and search bar!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! WE ARE BASICALLY HAVING THE EXACT SAME CONVERSATION IN OUR TEXT CHAT, SO SOLIDARITY, ANON.

this is something you’re gonna have to take up with the Tumblr Mobile App because we can do nothing about what shows up or doesn’t show up on mobile, I’m sorry

It’s right under the description at the top of the page.

You can order tea at Starbucks

Look we all have questions about the baristas, we are all human, but isn’t the true human experience to persevere despite knowing that some questions will never be answered?

CARLETON REPRESENT

@incorrectshakespeare people want us to be together, we have to give the people what they want

You can submit names of authors and characters you’d like to see order, but all the posts on the blog are written by the three people who run it!

These messages make US so happy! :)
