It was amusing to see beforehand how both the positive and negative reviews of this book used the same arguments like "it's not a book, it's a group hug" and "it's just a bunch of people flying in space and being nice to each other". I usually like the no plot/all character-books, but to my surprise I found that this time I belong among the curmudgeons. The first sitting and the first 150 pages was just fine, but every time after that when I picked it up, I just sighed. Turns out I prefer my violence fictional, but my niceness to stay in the real world.
