lol, It is not too much at all. I mean, I won't be reading it all at once, but I love having resources
It's always nice to meet a fellow link collector lol
I'll admit it might be a while since I've read some of these myself (or in the case of the book pdf - not fully yet) so they might not all be up to date, but the gist should still stand.
