Yes, I'm reading Something Rotten right now and I just ran into the Starbucks conversation, too. :) I think you're right about Fforde: he's got some clever bits, but at this point in the series, the humor (and possibly the resolution of a major story thread or two) keep me reading. I think the well is going a little dry. His first two books were brilliant, though. :)
