General comment: a theme that runs through most of the reviews is that they read like those advertising blurbs on the back cover of many books. Instead, a good book review should be an informed critique that rates quality (both pluses and minuses) and puts the book in context. As a result, a prospective reader can decide to choose book A over books X, Y, and Z based on the assessments and content summaries in their reviews.
General comment #2: overall, people thought the book was quite good. I hope  you're all not just saying that. I guess I'll find out when the course evaluation forms come back, since I believe they have a question about quality of textbook.

Here is an example of a review getting full points
I almost read all the content that is covered in the classes. It is great 
book. But it is not perfect. Followings are the reasons why it is great and 
why is not perfect.
Great things:
1
It combines the UML, patterns, OO Design and UP together. All these components 
will be encountered in the field of software engineering. It is a nice way to 
introduce them together.
2
There is big example (POS system) inside it. The one big example make the book 
very consistent.
3
It introduces the GRASP patterns and GoF patterns very systemically. There are 
no too much words, but it is clear enough to understand.
4
It is very basic textbook. It does not make things complicated. It is easy to 
read and understand.
Imperfect things:
1
The UML stuffs in this book are not complete and they are put in quite 
separated places. There is no connection between each other that makes reader 
forget what he or she has learn when getting new UML diagram or notation. 
Maybe it is the only way to do it. But I donĄ¯t like it.
2
Some examples for patterns are not good. For some confusing patterns, it uses 
the same POS example to explain then. It makes things more confusing. For this 
case, I think some examples outside POS system can be introduced into this 
book.
3
There are no enough code examples to give the users a direct idea behind so 
many concepts.
