July 7th is Robert Heinleins Birthday.(1907-1988) I love finding vintage paperbacks.I had read Stranger in a Strange Land, but not this restored version.

I MADE IT!!!! A big thanks to @quirkybookworm for being unlucky 666 on Saturday the 14th!!!
Now that I'm a bit better read than when I first read this, I got way more of the references! Yay!
I had totally forgotten these particular self-referential bits! Or maybe I honestly didn't know them because I hadn't read enough of the rest of his work at the time? It isn't like I read things in anything resembling a proper order, given I was just grabbing what I could from second-hand book shops.
Good lord, it's nearly Easter, and my Litfluence contains the number of the Beast! Somebody comment FAST! May grace return to my literary world! 😇😇😇
Read this some years ago. Now that I've read some Burroughs it is making much more sense.
Also: right. *This* is why some people think of Heinlein as being misogynistic. I disagree, but see where they're coming from.
Pleased to have caught this at 6666. 😈 Now to go for 66 666. 🤘🏻
