I was a big fan of Heinlein's books when I was younger and some of his books I hold in high regard even today. As I got older and started to read his later books, the whole old man and very young woman relationship trope kept cropping up more and more and I ended up stepping away from his work. The books that I read were in my dad's book collection. I do own a copy of Stranger In A Strange Land but I've been wanting to re-read some of his stories for a while now, Starman Jones has been in my thoughts lately.

Seconding most of this - Heinlein's early stories and juveniles are pretty solid, and I have a soft spot for Podkayne of Mars even if that one didn't hit nearly as well in adulthood. The Moon is a Harsh Mistress still ranks as one of my all-time favorites. And yeah, he went into a Weird/Dirty Old Man phase in his later writings.
