"Thinking in C++" - worth reading?
I've started reading "Thinking In C++". I'm about 300 pages into it, and I'm thinking about dropping it and starting a different book.
Some parts I have found interesting. It's scattered with stuff I didn't know. The problem is that it's so drawn out, long winded, and redundant, that I find myself losing focus.
Does it get better? Is it worth reading all the way through?

How long is it? If it's 600 pages or less, then you're already about halfway, so there's no point giving up now.
Oh. Okay, if you aren't enjoying it, then maybe try a different book. I guess you can always come back to it.
Well Thinking in C++ is class oriented from what I remember. The two volume series is still considered the best set of books to read though. It is up to you, but just depends. Me personally, I have Thinking in C++ 1 and 2 (not read them completely myself, just a few chapters of Volume 1) though I prefer The C++ Programming Language Special Edition as I figure where can you go wrong learning from the creator of the language.
