Nimoy was a better actor than poet. Most of this is trite but does show his early love for his family. A couple of these poems may reflect his "I am not Spock" period.
The photography is more interesting than the poems.

I loved this book. I loved hearing it read by Nimoy, too. He talks about his life and career and so much detail about Star Trek that I loved hearing. I even cried near the end. Very much worth the listen

This was an interesting book. I enjoyed Star Trek in my younger years and Spock was my favorite character (which was common). I enjoyed Mr. Nimoy's part in developing his character, the reasoning behind it and the history of the movies after the show. I think I should now read I am Not Spock to see what he said there (referred to several times in this book). I liked his interspersed dialogues with Spock, which helped to remind me of the "personality" of his character.
