Amanda’s Bookshelf
I’ve always been a big reader, and many of the ideas that shape how I work, manage my business and think about money have come from books.
This is where I share some of the titles I’ve found useful, interesting or simply worth talking about—along with my honest takeaways from each one. These aren’t sponsored reviews or books I think everyone should read. They’re simply books that made me think, taught me something or helped me approach work and life a little differently.
Books about money, business, productivity—and the occasional title that simply made me think.
The Psychology of Money
A thoughtful and surprisingly relatable look at why doing well with money has less to do with knowing all the right formulas, and much more to do with how we behave.
Everything but Money
An insightful look at why our financial lives are shaped by far more than numbers—and how understanding our money stories can help us create meaningful, lasting change.
How to Be a Rich Old Lady
A funny, approachable guide to investing, building wealth and creating a future that feels secure, independent and entirely your own. I started late in life on my retirement planning, and books like this have been a huge help.
