This was a really fun ride. Part campy sci-fi that you already know, part breaking the fourth wall, part philosophical introspective about life. Just what I needed to pick up right now though ... fun, easy to read, and didn't disappoint. ( ) Another book with a twist! I seem to be reading a lot of those these days. This starts as funny sci-fi poking fun at campy TV shows but turns into something else entirely and ends on a surprisingly sweet note. I liked it and reading it this weekend (soon after the movie shootings in CO) the message of living a meaningful life and being happy and expressing love for those who are most important to you hits especially hard. The final words from Jenkins are perfect. Now i have to go find my husband and hug him. Fun little romp with an interesting philosophical question woven through it: how would you react if you found out that your life was being scripted (badly), or how would you react if you found out that you were inadvertently scripting people's lives? Add in some Star Trek in-jokes, and you have a sweet story with a chewy center. Amusing premise where the characters realize to their horror that they are expendable supporting characters on a bad sci-fi show...then unite to try to do something about it. Starts off strong but the joke wears thin after awhile, and it gets too metafictional. The last few chapters have a completely different tone than the light humor of the rest of the book; I didn't like them in my first read, but found them to be rather moving on a re-read. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
