I loved the 'Joy of Clojure' as my first clojure book, but it was a little over my head at the time I started reading it, so it took subjectively quite a while to internalize everything. Since I didn't need to 'get stuff done' immediately, I think, in the end, it's great to learn things with such an insightful book. However, if I were in a hurry I might pick something else.
