I just finished reading it. It's amazing. It's my second favorite computer science book after SICP (the original scheme version not the js nonsense one)

Who would you recommend SICP to? How would you describe it?

It's a must read by anyone that writes code in any capacity. I would describe it as getting to the heart of the question of what computer science really is, the nature of computation, and how languages really work. There is a reason it used to be MIT's introductory computer science book. Maybe I just have an extra affinity for it as a weekend lisp hacker though tbh.
