Google Play 25 Cent Specials

Reservoir Dogs ($2.99 Amazon, $0.25 Google) is todays's Google Movie Rental Deal (which Amazon never matches, it seems).

Moneyball ($8.29 Kindle, $0.25 Google), by Michael Lewis, is the Google Book Deal today. I picked this one up a while back on one of Amazon's KSO deals, but I've reported the lower price on both editions, in hopes it will drop for the rest of you.

If you are in the UK, grab Restless ($0.31 Main/£0.20 UK), by William Boyd (can't link to Google UK
Book Description
Billy Beane, the Oakland A’s general manager, is leading a revolution. Reinventing his team on a budget, he needs to outsmart the richer teams. He signs undervalued players whom the scouts consider flawed but who have a knack for getting on base, scoring runs, and winning games. Moneyball is a quest for the secret of success in baseball and a tale of the search for new baseball knowledge—insights that will give the little guy who is willing to discard old wisdom the edge over big money.

Guns N' Roses Greatest Hits ($0.25 Amazon, Google) is today's Google Music Deal. This one is a no-brainer must-buy for any GnR fans out there. Be sure to also visit the main Google Music page, where you can grab a free download of Concierto De Aranjuez: II. Adagio ($1.99 Amazon), by Joaquin Rodrigo.
