I Am Spock is an amazing look into the life of Nemoy, mostly in regards to his Star Trek character Spock. However, while the story was focused on this aspect of his life it was not exclusively so. I ended up learning so much else about Nimoy's other work.

I was a TNG kid, finding Star Trek in the early 90s when most of the events of Nimoy's memoir had already happened. I had heard rumors about the actors interactions and the drama on the stage, but had never really given it much thought. This book gave me Nimoy's perspective on his work on Star Trek and specifically his character. It is a precious perspective now that he has passed. It also made me excited to seek out the other Star Trek memiors and read them all.

It was also brilliantly written, and narrated (as I read the audiobook). I admit that, at times, it made me quite emotional.
