Book #5 for the year: Money Girl's Smart Moves to Deal with Your Debt

This is an e-book that explains steps one should make to prioritise which debts to deal with first, how to free up money for paying off debt, how to do a budget (she calls it a spending plan), etc.

Although I've read other financial books, this one was in easy to understand language, didn't throw jargon at you, and was really straightforward. I really enjoyed it and understood it. It doesn't go into a lot of nuts and bolts of how to do something, but it explains what can be done and resources to help you figure out how to do it. The author, Laura D. Adams, has a podcast and financial tips and resources at her website: http://moneygirl.quickanddirtytips.com/. She also has another book/e-book called Money Girl's Smart Moves to Grow Rich, the first bit of which is included in with the one I read.

This e-book was admittedly a bit of a lead in for her other book (available as both a paperback and e-book, the latter in several editions for different e-readers). But it was only $1.99 for the Kindle edition, very coherent, and helpful. So you may want to check it out.

The website, incidentally, has other experts on pets, grammar, legal issues, work, nutrition, etc., so it might be something worth considering when you have questions and need a little expert advice.
