The newest book club in town is at the East Hampton Starbucks, and its first book selection honors Black History Month with a special emphasis on Jamaican culture. The book is "The Sun Is Also a Star" by Nicola Yoon.

The free book club will have its first meeting to discuss the book on Wednesday, Feb. 26, at 5:30 p.m. Starbucks is at 39 Main Street. BookHampton, next door to Starbucks, is offering a special discount of 15 percent off the regular price of the book.

According to an announcement posted in the store, Starbucks will be offering a special drink for the event. On Sunday, March 1, at 5:30 p.m., Starbucks will screen the film version of "The Sun Is Also a Star," with free popcorn and another special drink offer.
