Solid book. Easy to read, and Krug makes it enjoyable.
This book is (mostly) a pretty basic introduction to userability testing. That is not a criticism, but I've seen some reviewers upset about this. The target audience seems to be folks who do not do that sort of testing, or don't see the value in it.

An enjoyable, quick read. Starts with some general advice, and then gets very specific about how to handle various types of clutter. I really appreciate the focus on helping your kids grow in healthy ways.

I'm not sure why I've never read this before, and now I'm sad I hadn't read it sooner. Hands down, the best spy novel I've ever read. I totally understand why this is a classic.
Funny thing is, I had sort of figured out the final plot twist, but then became convinced I was wrong. I was still surprised in the end.
Had started this last week, but had a gap because of Irma.

Great plot, and the characters are well thought out. They are more than interesting enough to keep me engaged.
I listened to the Audiobook, and Wil Wheaton did an outstanding job.
