BOOKS
Buying books can add up to a lot of money. I have discovered Z-Library, a free service, which allows the user to download up to 10 e-books each day. I have been able to use this resource to download numerous resource books and articles. a good resource for anyone who wants to learn more but does not have the money to go and buy the books. This resource also has books to read for relaxation and enjoyment. https://z-lib.org/
