I know this is somewhat heretical - but I don't actually like The Lean Startup book that much.
I was pointed to Lean Startup back in 2010 as a solution to some of the problems I was looking at. The folk I talked to, places like the LSC mailing list, and reading the online/offline writings of Steve Blank, Eric Ries and many others helped a lot.
I was really looking forward to Eric's book - but it didn't really hit the spot I was hoping it would hit. It's very much aimed (I think) at explaining the ideas to the world in general - rather than being a guide to folk who want to apply the ideas. There's nothing wrong with the former, but I was hoping for the latter.
