I really loved this book. I was expecting a silly, legally-distinct Star Trek parody type book, but what Scalzi delivered was a fun adventure that covered mortality, finding purpose, and the perils of creativity being your livelihood (been there, lol).

laughed out loud a bunch of times as a huge trek fan and shed a little tear as a big ol crybaby. so meta and exploratory in form in a way that ends up being super heartfelt. 

i can understand why the last 1/3rd or this book didn’t hit for some people, but for me it was a slam dunk. 
fast-paced

Almost a great book, but felt a little like it tried to hard for the theme at the end

Any book that can make me actually snort with laughter and then later cry is an automatic five.

This book was recommended to me by a friend who knew I am a fan of Star Trek as well as science fiction/fantasy books and would appreciate this particular book. It did not disappoint me in any way. It was delightful, went in a direction I didn't expect, and wrapped up in a beautiful way. This book may make it into my annual rotation of books or books to read between series.
