Clean Architecture Book to Read?

I have this book Get Your Hands Dirty on Clean Architecture on my reading list, actually just as an open tab in my browser for a long time now. I just put it down here, maybe I come back to read it. Not sure if it is good and worth the time, but I like the topic and I think it is very relevant to understand this better.

Looking at the table of contents I really like the first chapter already.

1. What’s Wrong With Layers?

It Promotes Database-Driven Design It’s Prone to Shortcuts It Grows Hard to Test It Hides the Use Cases It Makes Parallel Work Difficult How Does This Help Me Build Maintainable Software?

Especially the bold "It Hides the Use Cases". I think most of our code is not structured by what it does but by how a language or framework suggests us to do it. That might also be the reason why I find Hexagonal Architecture and alikes so appealing.
