Type in “Books About Saving Money” on Amazon and you will find a list over 10,000 books.
That’s overwhelming. One of the top tips I give people who are looking to save money (and want books they can read about saving money), I tell them to narrow down their interest. Too general of a book may just be a rehash of what you already know – narrowing your focus allows you to save real money in specific areas of your budget.
Also, get reviews or recommendations from friends or read the reviews on Amazon or Goodreads to see if it will be a good fit for you.

My best piece of advice is to only focus on one goal at a time. When we try to do too much, at the same time, we can be become unfocused from our original goal. So grab one book, devour it, make notes and try implementing some of their strategies into your life.
