  1. Easy to read and informative
    I just got this book and can’t put it down. It’s easy to read and full of information that’s still relevant even 5 years later.

  2. A worthy read if you’re serious about web scraping.
    Wouldn’t dive into it before you have a basic understanding of Python. Really thorough book on the topic of web scraping!

  3. Very Helpful
    It’s a useful book if you have a basic understanding of Python and website construction. I use it mostly as a reference out of the index, but it stays on the top of my pile.

  4. Matches my style/need
    This book fit my situation well. I’m pretty comfortable with python but had not done any webscraping, and have a specific research project on my plate right now that requires deeper-than-google web research. The author wastes very little time trying to teach the reader python, but does provide small, mostly-clean code examples to show the proper syntax and python structures that are the best suited for the scraping and database modules that the book is based on.The read is quick, because the author structured the book so only the first half of the books is “required reading.” The second half is more of a reference section, that you can selectively read if the topic applies to your project. I find myself referring to a couple of these later chapters for my project, but not all.Other than a familiarity with python, the author assumes no prior technical knowledge on the subjects covered. Some folks might find this too basic, but was fine for me, because I had little knowledge of how the internet works, beyond a superficial level.

  5. A satisfying primer on web scraping
    This book assumes you are familiar with Python and have some basic understanding of network requests and HTML. While Python libraries make the actual demo code fairly concise, complete beginners might have a hard time following.I personally found the material to be well-organized, with good pacing and useful examples.

  6. Amazing book!
    This book is great and well written. You’d be hard pressed to find a better book. Definitely a must read

  7. Not a beginner level book, but very insightful.
    Really insightful book for those who would like to explore coding with Python. Not exactly a beginner level book though I needed to research quite a bit to understand the concepts.

  8. Opened up a whole new world in Tech/Python knowledge.
    Still reading…have learned a new way to experience Python and its capabilities to search the web…for pretty much anything.

  9. Great guidance through my journey and the knowledge is provide definitely you have to know some python. I recommend the book if you are interesting in the subject

  10. In current world, collecting data from the website is very time-costing. Thanks to Ryan Mitchell, who has written this good book.I felt very easier to read the book and practice my python codes. The structures are well designed and organized. I can easily understand the most techniques and methodologies of web scraper. Actually I like this book !

  11. This book covers a wide range of use cases for web scraping. It is a good read overall. Some of the code will not work, because the structure and layout of some web pages have changed. Sadly the github repository is not maintained, but on the other hand, it serves as a nice exercise to analyze the body structure of those web pages and try to get the expected piece of information.

  12. A great book, and covers all the subjects in a concise form. Concise being the key word. For the page count it is jam packed, but be prepared to study the examples and this book will give back what you put in.I am just over halfway through, and learning alot. There are a fair share mistakes, which begs me to ask if every example was tested. None are severe or broken beyond repair. Debugging is a valuable skill, so it checks you are paying attention.The writing is not as accessible as the ‘no starch press’ publications i have read, but in that style you would be upping the page count.Reccomend, despite the flaws. Looking forward to the second half.
