Same here, and I always recommend to go through it together with Erik Meijer in his Functional Programming Fundamentals Chapter lecture series on Channel9 (https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/C9-Lectures-Erik-Meijer-Functional-Programming-Fundamentals https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/C9-Lectures-Erik-Meijer-Fun...).
