I finished Jeffrey's book in a straight shot, but I agree on the ending; I had it figured by the end of Chapter 3 :-) Having just spent the last few weeks laboring over a few chapters for the upcoming 3rd Edition of Web Design in a Nutshell, I have to say that it is hard to write something that is essentially a reference book as anything other than that. It's especially difficult with a Nutshell book too. That said, I gave it my best to make my three chapters (which just happen to be consecutive) flow. I'm interested to see what you think of it when we hang in March (or perhaps you'll write about it here... it was work-for-hire, so pimping my "kool-aid" with your Amazon Associates ID will make you money, not me... I'll be expecting a cut). Yeah, most of ‘em are good for reference only, though Jeremy’s book is a great cover-to-cover read.

Currently I'm reading Stuart Langridge's book on Sitepoint and I'm interested to see how that compares with Jeremy's book ('cos I really need a refresher course in JavaScript!). See you in March, Craig! I can identify with this – I have a stackl of ‘em to read, but there’s always something else more pressing.
