Open Up: Why Talking About Money Will Change Your Life
by Alex Holder
I loved the first part and a couple of chapters throughout the book, but most of it was a bit of a disappointment. I didn't find the book particularly relatable, which a lot of comments on Goodreads mentioned. It's unclear who the book was written for; 21-year-olds freshly out of uni or 30-year-olds curious to get a raise and buy a house in London? It also reads like it could use another round of edits, some chapters are a bit all over the place and some really interesting arguments aren't fully developed.
The book did succeed in starting conversations about money, which is why it still deserves a couple of stars. If you're not British and/or living in an expensive city, you might want to pick another one!
