Welcome to Litsy!

Picked this up via recommendation from Storygraph, and I am so glad I did. I‘ve been a Star Trek fan for most of my life, and this was an entertaining and fun read. A lot of the book reads like narrative versions of the old Original Series episodes, with more depth to Kirk‘s backstory sprinkled throughout. It progresses into slightly condensed plots of the movies. While I was prone to love this as a fan, I think it is a fun read as a stand-alone.

I didn‘t know a lot about Kirk as I never watched the original series but he was awfully tragic. It was nice to be in the trek world and I really enjoy this authors writing style but Picard/ TNG is #mystartrek

Chillin‘ on the patio with this awesome read 🖖💕

I was lucky enough to visit a Star Trek exhibit at a local museum! They had costumes and props from the various series and it was seriously amazing! Of course I HAD to pick up a couple of Trek books in the gift store afterwards! 👍📚💕

Sorry about being in communicado today. I was marking. I'm leaving for uni tomorrow to teach and from there I'm going o Montréal for a conference. So I am running around like a headless Chicken and not reading. Not writing either. Marking is exhausting.

In the meantime, enjoy my favorite meme of all time.

Really enjoyable easy read. This made me want to rewatch original series episodes. #read2017

Listening to the approaching thunderstorm and reading all afternoon.... Bliss

Nerd time. Also banana time.
Making very slow progress with #litsyAtoZ because I'm not counting 'practical' books towards it, and plus I keep reading the same letters again and again.... Already done A lol.

Couldn't help myself. 😂😂😂😂

Interesting so far. Well written but requires a full knowledge of the series to be fully enjoyed.

First, let me say I was skeptical of this book about the pivotal captain of the USS Enterprise—so much could go wrong here. But I am so, so glad I gave The Autobiography a chance. It exemplifies everything I love about Star Trek: it‘s fun and endearing, surprisingly poignant and intelligent while still being action packed. I enjoyed the heck out of this book and fell in love all over again with Starfleet‘s favored son. -Jax
