I thought it was well written. Personally, I didn't really learn
anything new from it, but I've strongly suggested that the less
experienced developers on my team give it a read. Perhaps it's got
something to do with the fact that it uses Ruby to discuss the
patterns, but the book also seems to be more approachable than its GoF
counterpart. (Could also just be that I've had a lot more experience
with such things since I read the GoF book the first time.)
