Goes beyond the basics with lots of good examples for when concepts are tough to grasp. As someone who's been coding Go for about 2 years, I learned new things.
This book felt catered to me. I'm not a developer by career path, however it provides a LOT of insight into what I should be thinking about as someone without any education or formal training in Software Development. Really, really nice.
This book not only points out common mistakes and anti-patterns, it provides solutions—a perfect combination for deeper learning.
Read this, it'll give you years of experience of Go just learning from the book. Very valuable!
