Hi Victor, I've also come to clojurescript without javascript background. I found it relatively easy, just by following some tutorials on the web (I started with some core.async examples, because they're just so cool ;)
My only stumbling block was getting a repl running, now I'm using austin, and everything works quite well. My lack of Javascript did just bite me though: following Davids Om tutorial and trying to write my own validation component I left some javascript stuff in becasue I didn't understand it, which led to some strange errors. But David helped me clear this up pretty fast, so I'm pretty happy coding without thinking too much about Javascript. (BTW: om/react is a fantastic combination for front-end programming!!!)

I didn't buy it :) I would say follow https://github.com/magomimmo/modern-cljs and you're all set on the ClojureScript side. I loved it!
