I didn't find it aggravating. I didn't love the main character but I didn't hate him. He's a naïve kid at the start and you're along for his growth. It's sort of geared towards young adults/teens since he was coming off from writing mostly juveniles which are more like Boy Scouts in space.

Some of those juveniles are excellent, like Citizen of the Galaxy & Tunnel in the Sky.

Okay, I think you convinced me. Might just give it a shot when I can´t stop thinking about it, have such strong feelings about it and the writing is good.
