Update 8/2018:
My book club decided to discuss this and I think it says something that I would choose to reread it less than two months after my first read rather than just try to remember.

This isn't an action packed book, it is the journey of a group of people on a spaceship and the little moments they have on the way to their job. It is emotional in a simple soft way and it makes you think. ...more
