I recently read Starship Troopers and oof was that painful. Just page after page of Heinlein frothing out the mouth about his ideal militarized society. Needed a big time palette cleanser after that one.
The real tragedy about that novel is that Heinlein didn't live long enough to see the masterpiece that Verhoeven transformed it into.
It's not the most awful thing Heinlein wrote, though. I think "Friday" deserves that dubious prize.
