Programming Rust was a better fit for me. I found "the book" a little too cutesy, and I felt like it wasn't consistent in what kind of reader it was targeting.

Programming Rust was a better fit for me. I found "the book" a little too cutesy, and I felt like it wasn't consistent in what kind of reader it was targeting. I think the two books basically have the same goal of introducing the vast majority of Rust syntax and basic semantics to a reader who is already proficient in another programming language.
