William asked this question about Ancillary Justice (Imperial Radch, #1):
I just finished my second reading of Ancillary Justice. (First time I have re-read a book within a few months!) Honestly, the book is even better the second time around. Erudite and superbly well-written, every sentence composed and balanced and clear. The pacing is wonderful. More poignant, more powerful. Have any of you read the book again (any so soon after your first read) ?

I enjoyed my 2nd reading very much. I think partly because of the complex point of view and the ambiguous gendering, during a first read you really have to pay attention to how the story is structured. I found that this distracted me a little bit from the themes, which I was more able to focus on in this second read. I've rarely enjoyed a 2nd read more, and will re-read the following two books right away!(less)
