Look at it, it's a better way of doing this for multi-file, multi-topic projects.

## JavaReader

This a book focused on getting students to read more, much more, Java source code.
It has a lot of exercises, and a lot of code to read.
In the age of GPT, we need to have more code for students to read and reason about.
Creating Code isn't the hard thing anymore. 
Now, it's the thinking. (Well, that's always been true hasn't it?)
