I have read Friday at least three times and enjoyed it a great deal. Heinlein doesn’t sink into the boring slump of characters seating around and chit chatting as he was known to do in he’s later works. He keeps the plot chugging along. Friday herself narrates the tale, and she charms the reader in the cheerful sexpot way many of Heinlein’s female characters do. It should be noted the novel was published early eighties during he’s last years. One can see when he writes about artificial humans. He only little goes over it and then moves on unlike Philip K Dick. It’s interesting to note that while Robert A Heinlein it still seen as a master of the science fiction, Friday is good expel of that fact, he was very much of his time which is to say the fifties early sixties. That being said I would recommend this novel for someone who like a quick fun wild science fiction tale with not a lot of heavy thought to it.
