WILL BE UPDATED EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE
Hello, everybody. I am new to the mmowned community and I just wanted to contribute somthing. If there is somthing already like this, or if this is the wrong place, just tell me and I will gladly remove it. I just ask that you respect me, the book authors, and the effort I put into this post. The purpose of this thread is to teach beginners what books to read. I will list the title, author, price, opinion and link of each book. If you have anything to add, just tell me. Enjoy, :wave:
