However, I am getting more out of it on the second read through. There are some important/powerful concepts under discussion in the book - they just don't necessarily grab you first time through.

This is exactly how I feel. I still think it's kinda overrated, but I am definitely starting to understand some of the things they are saying. While this is great for me, it's a flaw of the book that it wasn't clear the first time through. A good book shouldn't be such a mystery.

That may not be the fault of the book. In things like this, you are always going to get more out of a good book after reading it the first time and then getting some playing time under your belt. Some things just can't be explained in a book if you don't have the foundation of knowledge and experience to understand them.
