I'd avoid Robbins.
It's stuck in a weird middle ground that I don't think is very useful except as a reference text. It has tons and tons of details, but not quite enough correlation to clinical practice. It does have clinical correlations, but it seems there are a lot of large gaps or blanks in ther. And it is too dense on science details to be a good review or board study book. Again, it is good as a reference when you have a question from some other source and want to either find a few more details or a different perspective/explanation of the process.
I like pathguy.com for a good overall learning resource (but I'm biased, lol). A bit disorganized but it includes tons of basic science and clinical details and a lot of "heads up" on clinical applications (i.e., "future pathologists, you'll confirm the diagnosis of X by such and such result on test Y"). And a lot of "background" on just why some things are important. And a lot of philosophical rambling too, but that somehow just seems to help me absorb the material. And links to all the gross and histo slides you'll need to aid in learning. And documentation (to articles and research papers in journals and elsewhere) like you wouldn't believe. Practically every sentence has a source where you can read more about what the sentence stated.
For quick review I'm liking Goljan RR pathology. BRS pathology looked pretty good too. Both are detailed and with clinical correlates, but concise enough to be useful for review/refreshing and for focused study. I like the Goljan audio lectures as well because I can play them in the car or running or wherever, and I figure anything I learn that way is just a bonus.
