/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

My first book was also a stitch in time and I loved it. Some years later and I'm probably around 100 books, although I still didn't buy q-squared.
There's this awesome and slightly outdated guide where it's easier for you to pick books. Or just go with your personal favourite series.
Some exceptions that never went on TV that I know are: stargazer(Picard before enterprise), Titan (Riker after enterprise) and New Frontiers( based on a whole new set of characters and by far the funniest of all I read).

Someone else commented it a bit ago, and made me realize the rabbit hole for the Trek novelverse goes deeper than I thought.
Destiny was recommended twice here and the guide lists it as a good starting point, so once I power through this one I'll probably start there.
I should buy A Stitch in Time. I borrowed a copy and read it years ago but I don't actually have a copy myself.
