Excellent overview of common datastructures and complex examples of Rust
I really enjoyed this book for a lot of reasons. It's a great book for intermediate Rust developers looking to see more complex examples of the language with context most of us understand. I found a lot of the examples easy to follow because I already had a solid grasp of what datastructures there were, and was able to focus seeing how Rust was used for the implementation. This book does a great job at exploring the tradeoffs of various datastructures in a nicely ordered fashion without getting too lost in the weeds of computer science. This book does not deep dive into the Rust language, but rather shows you application of some of its very common features toward non-trivial structures.I found the author of this book very friendly in their writing and not dry at all. I see this as a great addition to any rustaceans library. I would love to see a book by the same author on gang of 4 design patterns.

Not worth it.
Not at all clear. 75. Pages into this book, I can't see any value. The explanations require extensive use of third party resources to make sense of the source material. The section on Skip Lists was ultimately incomprehensible. I would believe someone finding value in the book. Just not me. Author tried at least.
