It's cute. It's fine

If you want to read something silly then go for this, definitely. It's a fictional faux memoir by Brent Spiner, aka Data on Star Trek the Next Generation, where Spiner is stalked by one or more deranged Star Trek fans. It tries to balance on the edge between bizarre and hilarious and falls more to the bizarre territory more than hilarious in my opinion. Being someone who enjoys the bizarre, I enjoyed the book. I especially recommend the audiobook version as all (or nearly all) of the stars of ST:TNG make an appearance to voice themselves: Patrick Stewart, Gates McFadden, Jonathan Frakes, Marina Sirtis, and more. Plus we get an insider's view of Gene Roddenbury's funeral which does not come off as fictionalized. A fun read overall.
