Brought to you by Penguin.

This book will give you the skills, tools and confidence you need to change your relationship with your finances forever.

Ah, money. We all use it, but most of us feel like we don't 'get' it. Enter: a personal finance book you’ll actually want to read. With absolutely no judgement or jargon, The Book of Money breaks down big, complex topics into bite-sized chunks.

Inside…

  • Balancing your budget: avoid the day-before-payday dread
  • How to 'do money' together: take the tension out of sharing finances
  • Becoming an investor: why it’s not just for millionaires
  • Life after work: look after your future self and leave pension procrastination behind
  • Debt and borrowing: how to get on top of your debt and use credit to your advantage
  • Property: renting, buying and making the most of where you live


With practical exercises and stories inspired by Monzo’s 11 million customers – this is the perfect personal finance book for people who’d never normally read one.

Not feeling so overwhelmed and clueless now! I have never understood investing, pensions, APR etc and as a result have kind of ignored it all… therefore not having money beyond a monthly income. I feel clued up now and have re-worked my budget.

Wish I’d had this knowledge overview age 16!

Very basic overview of personal finances. Kind of patronising. No interesting ideas or frameworks, just covers the very basics with little nuance.

A good top to bottom run through of what you need to know about money (in the UK). It provides a foundational knowledge of saving, spending and being conscious about what you do with your money. At no point did they try and sell Monzo to you, even when they are talking about banking app features that they clearly have there was no push towarda their services. If you know the fundamentals you likely won't learn anything new but maybe just reassure you are doing the right things.
