I might check it out from an informative perspective, unless you consider it just a rehash of a wiki article. But are there any published articles on Gene Coon?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_L._Coon It’s not LITERALLY Wikipedia articles, but it didn’t look like there was a lot of original research there. I didn’t spend a lot of time on it; I mostly remember being disappointed, because I want a fat, well-researched book about Coon, who is as important as the Great Bird himself in making TOS worth remembering. And this didn’t look to be that. But if you read it and think it’s worthwhile, please let me know. It’s entirely possible I was too hasty in dismissing it. As I get older, I find myself growing impatient with stuff that doesn’t grab me right away.
This is entertaining and definitely lively. It is very much fictionalized however. In addition, the entire story take place over a few weeks/months so it's not the traditional, " I grew up here, then went to school there, and had this experience on Night Court" type of autobiography. The best bits (autobiography wise)-- you get a real sense of what it was like to be on set and in the trailers with the TNG crew and you get a sense of how they interacted. The entire thing is tied up in a murder mystery, so you never really know what was "real," what was tied up in a loose interpretation of reality, and what was completely created whole cloth. You can guess with quite a bit of it, but if you can take it for what it is, it's a pretty fun and easy read. In short, if you are looking for a fun read that happens to give you a small window into the world of the TNG actors, it is definitely worth looking at. However, don't go into it expecting to learn much about the real Brent Spiner or his colleagues; they are more characters in a story that takes place over a few weeks as opposed to the history of actual people.
It’s called “Fan Fiction”, after all. I would think most readers would approach it as fiction, and not as “Fan Fact”.

@elric428 , it has just come to my attention that your book cover images all seem to be hotlinked from Amazon or S&S. Just a reminder to please not hotlink images other than those hosted on actual image-hosting services (such as Imgur, PostImage, etc). I have gone through your posts and have converted your hotlinked images to links. My apologies for not attending to this earlier; I wasn't aware it was going on.
