The Simple Path to Wealth
JL Collins

With a foreward by Mr. Money Mustache how could we not read this book? The beginning of the book was a great refresher and reminded us that we can still simplify our portfolio even further. He condenses the often daunting world of investing to a strategy that is easy to follow. In the last few chapters he addresses a few more complex topics but even these were presented in a straightforward and simple manner. For those who prefer audio he has now published an audiobook format where you can hear him read the book to you!

The Fiology Workbook 
David Baughier & MK Williams

We wished we had this Fiology Workbook at the beginning of our FI journey! It is an excellent resource for anyone interested in pursuing FI. There are 52 lessons that will help you prepare mentally and financially to understand the why and how of FI. Going through the Fiology Workbook as a couple we learned a lot about each other's goals, strengths, fears and how to overcome our challenges. The lessons are available free on Fiology.com but the workbook is a valuable supplement!

Quit Like a Millionaire
Kristy Shen & Bryce Leung

Kristy and Bryce's journey from poverty to millionaire was inspiring, engaging and very resourceful. We appreciate the excellent explanations of complex financial concepts and strategies they used. The entertaining stories and writing style makes dry financial topics easier to absorb. We believe their book will definitely help you better understand money and help reach your financial goals.

Playing with Fire 
Scott Rieckens

Scott and Taylor's discovery and path to Financial Independence was incredibly engaging. We listened to the audiobook version and really loved hearing their perspectives in their own voices. While the book is not a how-to guide for FI it does provide insight to the emotional and challenging journey as they describe the choices they have to make to achieve their goal. We are excited for the upcoming documentary and look forward to experiencing its impact on the FIRE community and the world at large.

The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up 
Marie Kondo  

Initially we got this book for our kids to teach them why having a clean room (and house) makes life easier but the whole family ended up reading this resourceful book because we loved it! The kids enjoyed the graphic novel format and learned the process of filtering clothes and items to just those they need. We donated dozens of bags of clothes and items and now have a (mostly) organized, clutter-free home. As an unexpected bonus our kids really enjoyed her folding technique and used it to organize their closets.
