Nice, well thought out book. I was kinda hoping it would cover 2 on 1 circular, but it didn't so much. Guess that is what YouTube is for. At any rate, she is a very artistic and accomplished knitter and I follow her blog, so I thought I should check it out.
Well done book. Clear instructions. Would be worth having on my shelf for reference (read as a library book).
It's "to buy" someday.

Excellent tome on knitting toe-up socks! Definitely thinking about adding this one to my personal library!
I find that I like toe up sock technique the most - good patterns although mostly all fingerling yarn. one to go back to
Although the patterns in the book didn't do much for me the photography is outstanding and the basics information on toes and heels very useful.
Good basic reference for knitting toe up socks with different cast-ons, toe and heel methods, and bind-offs, tho most of these are available online various places. Nice sock patterns, but nothing really new and different. I tend to make up my own sock patterns as I knit, so I was meh about it. But it would be nice for the beginning sock knitter.
This one is a really good book for explaining what to do and how to do it. I think I can modify the patterns enough (if needed) so that I can avoid doing a gauge swatch. The lace patterns are gorgeous and I really want to try some of them.
Patterns can be done with a variety of needles (dpns, circulars, or magic loop).

Although the patterns in this book are too advanced for me, they are nothing short of inspiring!
