This throws

IllegalArgumentException: No implementation of method: :read-json-from of protocol: #'clojure.data.json/Read-JSON-From found for class: clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap

It turns out that client/get returns a map with cookies, headers, status, body, etc. You need to pull out the body of the response thusly:

(read-json (:body (client/get url))
