Here is where I list book and movie reviews,”projects” that I am investigating and writing on, recommendations that don’t fit elsewhere, and more. On the subject or reading, I encourage you to read my post “Learn, grow, and save via a weekly trip to the library” on my discovery of the value of a weekly trip to the local library.

Android applications (cell phone)
