Going on holiday this weekend, any suggestions for books?

I read Tim Hale's smarter investing fairly recently and enjoyed it....

Anything else you can recommend for money motivation, saving, investing etc? :beer:

    Not so much, investment advice, rather budgeting/changing the way you think about money.

    You're on holiday, read some classics. Most personal investment books are rubbish, at best statements of the bleeding obvious padded out with motivational buzzwords and at worst factually wrong and encouraging poor decisions.

    If you want to read books that are actually good but also about money I recommend The Way We Live Now by Trollope and The Financier by Theodore Dreiser. Both are in the public domain and free on Kindle.
