(There are many not-great things about this book, and if I was reading it for the first time now I might not like it at all. But I liked it a lot when I first read it as a teenager, and I still like it now, though I roll my eyes at much of it.)
My second Heinlein book and it was too much like the first (Starship Trooper, which I liked). Sadly, this book does not hold up to its counterpart, despite also relying on the journaling writing technique. The whole premise was weak, closely related to Gataga, altogether unclear what the big deal was in this case.
Will give Heinlein two more reads, but I am worried that he will not be one of my science-fiction authors.
