The idea is good: a list of general topics, a "why should you care" section for each (the part I really liked) and a few specific titles.
I would love an expanded list of topics (the current one is short) e.g., compilers, comms, security, Arduinos/ raspberry Pi / IoT. I personally did not like long lists of specific books -- I'd rather know about the topic and browse bookshelves at a Barnes and Noble to pick a couple that I like, but that's just my preferences.
