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.

The story hits the ground running at 60 mph. Is it possible that your second reading of the book was more enjoyable because 1.) The first time your brain had to fill in the world aspects the author hadn't explained yet, and the second time you didn't have to 'guess' as much? and 2.) You were used to the author's style? I found the first few chapters exhausting because the authors style was a little sterile (which may have been to illustrate Breq's POV) and all this jargon was thrown at me with no explanation at all.
