I can resist everything except temptation.

I read pretty much anything with a halfway interesting title, although mostly SF and technical books about programming.

Attaboy reviewed 100 Go Mistakes by Teiva Harsanyi

Teiva Harsanyi: 100 Go Mistakes (2022, Manning Publications Co. LLC)

Great overview

4 stars

Great overview of many common Go mistakes. I've learned quite a lot, especially towards the later chapters. The examples sometimes seemed a little too 'contrived,' I guess that's just the side effect of trying to keep code extracts as short and concise as possible. I would've wished for some more real-world examples though.
