Really enjoyed the book. I've finished up everything I was reading as was thinking about trying one of Heinlein's other books. Anyone have a recommendation? I was reading some different synopses and some mention sex and relationships. I'm not super interested in romance books or "sexual pioneering" as I saw in one of them, so if there's any of that I need to steer clear of in particular.
If you want to avoid Heinlein's free love phase, don't read Stranger in a Strange Land. It's very good, but also very 60s hippie with regards to sexuality.
I'd recommend The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.
I'd love to recommend some more, but these 3 are the only Heinlein I've read so far
The audio book I have for mistress is fantastic, i loved the voice acting. The main character had a russia accent and it was probably better than how I would have read him in my head.

Moon is a Harsh Mistress was leading the pack for me and I've got two recommendations now so I'll go for it.

SiaSL is... poor. It has some brilliant moments! But in between are some piles of drek. It thinks far too highly of itself. FAR too much.
The Man Who Sold the Moon is an excellent collection of related short stories.
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is a must-read, although it has the silly line marriage idea.
