### 5/5 — Free book summaries

*2026-07-19*

I stumbled upon Fountain and was pleased to find that they have book summaries there to choose from. There are some titles on Autism, some self-help that are cognitive behavioral, and other topics. Easily written about 8th grade level not highly technical but would likely serve for introductory presentations. Good for Jr. High to High School students but also for adults who need basic knowledge of a given topic. Enjoyable choices and relaxed delivery.

### 1/5 — Predatory billing practices

*2026-04-07*

I still have not been able to unsubscribe. It has been months. You can’t call and messaging them has had no answer for many people. I keep getting charged monthly.  I cannot see them pop up on my app subscriptions in my phone and on the website there is no option to unsubscribe. You can cancel your account, but that will continue charging. I followed all the instructions online and still cannot unsubscribe.

### 1/5 — FRAUD ALERT
