At least one person who is not the author seems to have liked this book, so I challenge the assumption that it "appears to be a bad book".

And... it's a book, dude. You can check it out from the library or buy it used for ten bucks and stop reading it if you don't like it; that's not going to ruin your life. If you have enough time to reply to my dumb comments on HN, you must certainly have the time to start reading the book for 30 minutes and decide if it's worth continuing or not :)

Do you know why user reviews exist?

That would be valid if it were me considering reading the book and if it took me 30 minutes to reply to the comment.
