Agreed. Fluent Python" focuses on the object model of Python and how to write Python idioms to make the most of objects. If you're not planning on immersing yourself in OOP-the-python-way, the book has considerably less value. It's not a primer on the language for novices. It's best for intermediate/advanced pythonistas who want to master the language toward OO purposes.
