An approachable, accessible global guide to financial management for those new to the job market or about to finish their studies, from the founder of the UK’s biggest financial wellbeing platform for young people.There are many financial wellbeing books, but they all tend to cover the same topics, such as savings, debt and pensions. And while these books may explain what you need to do to develop financial confidence and independence, few genuinely tackle the “how” in an approachable way relevant to today’s young workers – until now.Financial Adulting speaks specifically to young workers, particularly first-time full-time employees, who need to learn vital money-management skills. They have their own desired financial milestones, such as buying property, paying off loans or taking a gap year, but they need to know how to achieve them in the most efficient and sustainable way. This practical playbook offers clear and concise step-by-step guidance to these goals, as well as covering topics such as Buy Now, Pay Later apps, and what to expect financially from further education, while allowing readers to determine their unique paths to financial freedom.

A heart-warming and honest memoir written by Gemma and Leo, a mother and son, recounting the story of Leo’s gender transitionThe lives of transgender people have evolved into a talking point in wider society. Many people now have an opinion on trans issues; however, most have not informed that opinion by speaking to a trans person first-hand. Between is a memoir told from the perspective of a mother and her transgender son, with the aim of destigmatizing and humanizing transgender people and the issues they face. Gemma is the first to admit she knew nothing, and felt vulnerable and uneducated, while Leo explains that he always felt different and how hard it was for him to face his family, his friends and the world. Their story provides an honest insight into what it’s really like to come out, tell people, get help, grow up and live as a trans person, as well as what it feels like to parent a trans person. It beautifully illustrates the issues, pain, struggle and joy for trans people and their parents, and is a must-read for those in the same shoes, and those who want to be better friends and allies to the LGBTQ+ community.
