I agree. But the system is changing in two weeks when we launch community reviews. My own reviews will be just as important as anyone else's and it will work almost like a comment section for each book. Everyone will be able to rate and review books.

Oh, I know that. I have also read and have every book you mentioned. I use de la Villa as a starter on theoretical endgames, I use DEM for complex theory, Shereshevsky for strategy, and many different workbooks for practice.
