That's a lot of books! And yes, nonfiction should totally count!
There's this split about the books vs the Legend shows where people who loved the books hated the show vs the people who loved both. And everytime I'd think about reading a book, someone would post how misogynistic it was, esp compared to how positively the show women are portrayed. Or how book!Richard makes dull speeches for hours on end. Or how book!Rahl is the irredeemably evil blonde guy rather than the tortured complex dark haired man (that I'm slightly obsessed with!). Looks like we're trying to a read along at Legendland later this month though, so I guess I'll see for myself :)
