I just Finished reading your book, I did work along with the text up to
chapter
4. I hope to finish that up when I get the time. It is looking great.
I am a pgsql beginner and this book has help me out a lot.

I know that data modeling is a huge subject, but you might want to add a
small chapter on that subject.

I look forward to reading more drafts, and thank you for the great work
so far.
