I published my first site about five years ago. At first, I used the free hosting platform Infinityfree that has multiple limitations and was unavailable from time to time, then I moved to cheap Hostbudget hosting. It was really awesome.

I’ve just finished the Testament book by Margaret Atwood and I liked it. I like anti-utopia books in general and that’s one of them. During the reading, I realized that it’s the second book in the series. However, you could enjoy it even without reading the first book (The Handmaid’s Tale).
