Google Play’s Best of 2017 – Apps, Games, Movies and MORE!

Thank GOD, 2017 is coming to an end. What a crappy year it’s been, at least in this house. We are anxious for 2017 to roll around and for a fresh start. As much as the year has sucked, I always enjoy reading the best of lists. It’s how the year will be remembered, you know 10 years from now. Hopefully all the crappy will be forgotten and when I hear the Moana song, I will think – oh yeah 2017.
