OMG! I remember this. Didn't own it. I see it's on Drivethru.

I've used a few traps out of Grimtooth's, and I've had a few used on me, but most of those traps are probably a bit too 'creative'.

I would seriously check out Jeff Ashworthy's book of traps, puzzles and dungeons. I don't own it but if it is anything like his book of non player characters, then it would be an excellent resource.

Beat me to it, but yeah. I have his other two books even though I don't play 5e. They are very well done. If they are any indication of what this book will be, then I would highly recommend it. And get the others while you're at it.

3e "Traps & Treachery" was quite good, but "Grimtooth's Traps" is unbeatable.

I don't know much about it, but Nord Games' Treacherous Traps for 5e was a pretty successful kickstarter last year. It contains a couple dozen new traps at each tier, as well as a fair bit of design consideration info.
