Awesome Finance Books Every Woman Should Read
The most successful people in the world all have one thing in common: they never stop reading. Having previously shared what I consider the best books about finance, many of you expressed interest in reading and discussing them together, as well as having regular recommendations on finance books to read. And so last year, the Family Finance Mom Book Club was born. Read on to learn how you can find our current club pick and join the discussion!
Family Finance Mom Book Club
Nonfiction can be a turn off for some readers. It can also be hard to read about topics that are new to you, if you have to look up new vocabulary or don’t have a resource to support you when you encounter elements you don’t understand. But for those interested in deepening their understanding of personal finance, books can be a tremendous resource.
How #FFMBookClub Works
Since there is no shortage of finance books to read, each quarter, I come up with a shortlist of nonfiction picks related to finance. They vary from social commentary on economic inequality, personal stories of financial improvement, market history, to even self improvement books you can apply to all elements of your life, including your family finances.
I put the list up to a vote in my Instagram stories, and my followers choose the book we will read. We read one new book each quarter. A new book is announced the first week of each quarter in January, April, July, and October for discussion during the last month of the quarter in March, June, September and December.
To join the discussion, all you have to do is follow me @FamilyFinanceMom and #FFMBookClub on Instagram. You’ll find all our previous book picks and discussion posts there. And as you read with us, you are welcome to post your own as well!
Our Current Pick Is…
For Q1 2021, we are currently reading The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel. Discussions will begin on my Instagram feed in March 2021. Follow #FFMBookClub to join the discussion!

You can click through to get any of the above books right on Amazon… or, since we prefer to save money rather than spend it around here, get it from the library. Since you have several months to read each book, there’s plenty of time to get on your library waitlist.
If you already have a library card, be sure to see if your library uses Libby to checkout ebooks. You can get ebooks without ever even leaving your house, at absolutely no cost to you!

I really liked Outliers, but haven’t read many of these! Looking forward to reading the ones I haven’t seen before, since I’m a big finance books person. Thanks for sharing!
