It also depends on how fast you read. And whether you only want information for yourself, or possibly to educate other people (because telling other people to read something in Kahneman will seem high-status, while telling them to read the Sequences may feel cultish to them).
By the way, have you read Stanovich before or after LW? Was that worth your time?
I’ve read it those two books after LW. Assuming you have read the sequences: It wasn’t a total waste, but from my memory I would recommend What Intelligence Tests Miss only if you have an interest specifically in psychology, IQ or the heuristics and biases field. I would not recommend it simply because you have a casual interest in rationality and philosophy (“LW-type stuff”) or if you’ve read other books about heuristics and biases. The Robot’s Rebellion is a little more speculative and therefore more interesting, Robot’s Rebellion and What Intelligence Test Miss also have a significant overlap in covered material.
