I guess it's because I'm one of those people that never follows lists like this. Because if you are a total nonfiction book nerd? It is so easy to find books you want to read in a bookstore. Easier I think than for people who read fiction, because nonfiction books are a little more straight forward on what they are about, and what topic they cover.

But I like it because people need to be directed to more nonfiction.
