Unfortunately I've started on The Diamond Age first, so it will take me a while.

I've read it a bit earlier, so I'll jump in to the spoilers thread, saying here that this was my first book by Joe Haldeman and I hope not the last, because his writing style is very good
I cheated and read Camouflage in November when I had a break. It was a quick read that I enjoyed, but it was not what I expected nor quite as good as I hoped. Still good though.
When I read the summary of the book, I got the impression it would be a light hearted adventure about self discovery. I'm about half way through the book and...I was wrong.
Not that this bothers me, I am enjoying this book very much. I knocked half of it out yesterday and I don't see that enthusiasm petering out anytime soon.

Starting on this in a couple of days, I've realised that with all my recent slacking I am one book behind on my yearly challenge. Time to hit those half-way-through titles I've got on kindle.
Luckily everyone seems to agree that Camouflage is a quick read, so maybe I'll even manage to read an extra novel before the end of the year.
