Books that made me laugh

Conta-me Como Foi (first 5 seasons): Follows the day-to-day life of a typical Portuguese family living in Lisbon between March 1968 and April 25 1974, during Salazar's Dictatorship
Breaking Bad: Story of Walter White, a chemistry teacher who discovers he has cancer and thus decides to become a drug lord!
Better Call Saul: Takes place in Breaking Bad's universe and follows the story of Walter's lawyer Saul Goodman, as well as other awesome characters
Squid Game: Follows Gi-hun, who participates into a secret contest where 456 players, all of whom are in deep financial hardship, risk their lives to play a series of deadly children's games for the chance to win a whopping ₩45.6 billion prize

Best site ever: Website created by Roman Strakhov (one of the fastest big cube blindsolvers in the world), which has many pages, among which the only ones I've ever used are coLPI and especially his awesome mosaic builder
Cube Lovers: MIT mailing list dedicated to the mathematics of the Rubik's Cube and similar puzzles active from 1980 to 1999
cube20.org: Website written by the team who found Rubik's Cube's God's number, displaying the results obtained from their search and explaining how they did it
Jaap's Puzzle Page: Huge collection of twisty puzzles with a guide to solve them, as well as some computational data, like numbers of positions and God's numbers
Orfeas' Webpage: My friend Orfeas' website, from which I drew inspiration to create mine

Add some javascript so that the audience can know the last time the website was modified (I don't want to do it manually every time)
Make it compatible with smartphones (just compare Orfeas' Webpage with mine)
