Oh my god I just finished that. I’m not a big reader and it was such a fucking drag from the second half of the book. Good action in the fist few chapters and I liked the old timey sci fi lingo but a total wankfest as you say.
I read it after seeing the movie. I didn’t think it was serious at first because the movie was obviously a military industrial complex/fascism parody, but the book plays it straight, in a bad way.
Starship Troopers. Military wankfest

Sounds like something a couple of skinnys would say.
