Heinlein's writing career can, I believe, be divided into three or four periods --- short stories, "Boy's Life," Transition To "World As Myth," and "World As Myth."

But, to start, you might want to pick up The Past Through Tomorrow, a collection of short stories and novellas that pretty much defines his Future History. From there, you want to read Starship Troopers, and The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, and the "Boy's Life" books, of course.

Jen, what do you suggest?

Oh wait...

Didn't I read Starship Troopers and decide I didn't like it? Seems like I did a couple of year ago at thebeach.
