I didn’t actually get as far as 57%, I just skipped large portions of the book that didn’t interest me. I do like the idea of this book, I just don’t think I liked all of the ways it went about it.
Some interesting little tidbits, and concepts. It does feel a bit dated and could have probably been a much shorter book.

Good: a pretty interesting introduction to choice architecture and the basics. It has funny stories and it also makes a point on how "willpower" is just simply B.S.
He has a good point on several ideas to improve people's pool of choices, but I don't think the authors know how it works when you actually have to sit on the table with a politician and explain why something matters. And in the same way, I don't think that many people in the advocacy world know for real how psycho-social interventions work.
Also: It made me think a lot about the limitations of nudges in the public health area and how to link them with policies.
Bad-ish: if you're not from the U.S, it's hard to relate to the vast majority of the examples.
Ugly: Again, it seems like they forgot that Skinner, Bijou, Baer and other cool folks contributed a huge lot to the behavioral part of "behavioral economics"
