HABTM objects not loaded after serialization

      I have two relations, has_many and has_and_belongs_to_many from User to Entry:

      class Entry
        include Mongoid::Document
        field :content, type: String
       
        has_and_belongs_to_many :favorite_of, class_name: 'User', inverse_of: :favorites
        belongs_to :user, inverse_of: :entries, class_name: 'User'
      end
       
      class User
        include Mongoid::Document
        field :name, type: String
       
        has_and_belongs_to_many :favorites, class_name: 'Entry', inverse_of: :favorite_of
        has_many :entries, inverse_of: :user, class_name: 'Entry'
      end
      

      Now when I add a favorite to a User, the favorite_ids array is saved properly, but when I read the user again, user.favorites is just []:

      irb(main):001:0> u = User.create
      => #<User _id: 51223cd9e44f7b5ce2000001, name: nil, favorite_ids: nil>
      irb(main):002:0> e = Entry.create
      => #<Entry _id: 51223cdde44f7b5ce2000002, content: nil, favorite_of_ids: nil, user_id: nil>
      irb(main):003:0> u.favorites << e
      => [#<Entry _id: 51223cdde44f7b5ce2000002, content: nil, favorite_of_ids: ["51223cd9e44f7b5ce2000001"], user_id: nil>]
      irb(main):004:0> u.save
      => true
      irb(main):005:0> u.favorites
      => [#<Entry _id: 51223cdde44f7b5ce2000002, content: nil, favorite_of_ids: ["51223cd9e44f7b5ce2000001"], user_id: nil>]
      irb(main):006:0> exit
      
      
      $ rails c              
      Loading development environment (Rails 3.2.12)
      irb(main):001:0> User.first.favorites
      => []

      Although the setup is really simple, I put a test case online: https://github.com/pascalj/habtm-test
