I saw another review that pretty much sums up my feelings. Haldeman's recent books have been breezy and interesting, but ultimately light. This reminded me a lot of Heinlein's teen books, except for the addition of some unnecessarily graphic sex. I don't have any problem with sex in fiction but this didn't seem to serve any purpose. I liked that the narrator was a teenage girl, and that she was an intelligent teenage girl without major hangups. That said, some of her actions -particularly when it came to love and sex - just didn't match her character, which I might chalk up to a middleaged guy writing from the perspective of the aforementioned girl. Other than that, it was a fun read.
