Books very over rated. Everyone has their own style, you can't try and copy another mans style to help your own game. Haven't read any and think i've done well for myself lol
I disagree completely. The poker pros writing these books have a lot of knowledge and it helps lay a great base to become a good poker player. If nothing else reading a book will help save you from learning some lessons the hard way.
Doyle Brunson said if he had had his book when he was starting out it would have saved his bankroll several times over.
With all that said, to each their own.
