Looking to learn more about manifestation?
I love podcasts, YouTube videos, and blogs like this one (shameless plug đ), but nothing beats finding some good manifestation books to read!
And seriously, you guys, some of these manifestation books have changed my life.
Theyâve provided me with valuable information, taught me new methods, and given me a different perspective on the world around me.
And at the very least, I must say, manifestation books have some crazy good energy. â¨
They just make me feel good!
However, one thing you have to remember is to actually put what you learn to practice.
As much as I love absorbing information and high vibes from good manifestation books, it is VITAL that you also take action.
Just like any manifestor worth her salt knows, manifesting is more than just thinking good thoughts and journaling.
Psst! Make sure to stay tuned for #8 â seriously my favorite take-action book chock-full of some incredible manifestation exercises!
Also, there are some affiliate links below, but note that I only recommend products I genuinely like and trust, so consider it my digital tip jar.
(All these manifestation books have earned some serious Goodreads stars from me!) â
Okay, letâs find your next page-turner!
1. The Secret
Truly no list would be complete without mentioning The Secret by Rhonda Byrne.
Odds are you may have already read this book (or even watched the movie!), since it did open up a LOT of people to the world of manifestation.
This book explores the law of attraction, revealing the power of positive thinking and visualization to manifest your desires.
Itâs definitely a GREAT read for beginners!
I do have one very honest critique about this book, however.
To put it bluntly, The Secret does leave some room for toxic manifestation. đŹ
Especially for those with mental health issues, it can be a little too easy to get into the headspace that everything happens because of what you think.
For some, this thought can be empowering, but for others (especially those would have experienced hardship in life), it can be harmful.
To be safe, I like looking at it from both angles.
I am in control of creating my life, but at the same time, everything happens for a reason.
What seems bad in the moment can be a life-changing learning experience, something I overcome and look back on with pride.
Maybe even something that inspires others.
Babe, sometimes things just happen, and you can ALWAYS come back stronger than you ever wouldâve before. đ¤
But long story short, I would definitely recommend this manifestation book! Anyone interested in the law of attraction should give it a read.
2. Think and Grow Rich
For those focused on manifesting money, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is 100% the book for you!
Seriously such a manifestation classic, designed to guide you on the principles of success through mindset, goal-setting, and persistence.
This book serves as a blueprint for manifesting financial and personal abundance. đ¸
Itâs also super practical! It doesnât just get into the principles but also lays out a tried-and-true method to succeed.
But it hits the nail on the head when it comes to principles too. In fact, there are 13 in this manifestation book!
The first three are desire, faith, and auto suggestionâŚ
And I guess youâll just have to read the book for the other 10! đ
(And donât worry, itâll totally be worth your time â and the investment will pay for itself tenfold.)

3. The Game of Life and How to Play It
Yet another of my favorite manifestation books to read is The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn.
It may be a bit of an oldie (weâre talking 1978!), but truly, itâs a classic.
While there may be plenty of new exercises and methods these days, the principles are always the same.
If you believe it, you can achieve it.
Through engaging anecdotes and profound teachings, Shinn explores the laws of prosperity, success, and happiness.
Her emphasis on the power of affirmations and positive thought provides practical tools to navigate lifeâs challenges and manifest your desired outcomes.
Itâs also one of the shortest manifestation books, coming in at just 95 pages!
My favorite quote from this book is a simple and straightforward one: âYou can control any situation if you first control yourself.â
Life is a game, and this timeless book teaches you how to play it â and win!

4. A Happy Pocket Full of Money
If youâre looking to cultivate some seriously good vibes around money, check out A Happy Pocket Full of Money by David Cameron Gikandi.
I hadnât even heard of this book until maybe three years into my manifestation journey.
But it was getting some glowing recommendations from other manifestation girlies in my favorite Facebook groups, so I had to give it a read.
(Also because I am such a sucker for manifestation books about money!)
And now Iâm one of those girls who canât stop recommending this treasure of a book! đ
Itâs a transformative exploration of abundance consciousness, where Gikandi delves into the profound connection between your internal mindset and external wealth.
And throughout the entire book, one particular affirmation appears regularly: âI am wealth. I am abundance. I am joy.â
Guys, affirmations are infused into the book!
If any of these manifestation books is a good one to pick up and read a few pages of daily, Iâd say this is it.
Positive vibes are essentially guaranteed.
The book can be a bit repetitive, but frankly, sometimes I need that in order for a concept to be drilled into my mind.
Letâs just say I wonât be forgetting the principles from this book anytime soon!

5. The Science of Getting Rich
Those seeking a short and sweet book about manifesting money wonât be disappointed by The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles.
If you couldnât tell, one recurring theme on this list is manifestation books about creating wealth, and this one is an absolute gem! đ
And at only 146 pages, itâs an excellent read for those who get intimidated by a large book.
The Science of Getting Rich is a pioneering work in which Wattles presents a distinctive perspective, focusing on the fundamental laws that govern wealth creation.
It emphasizes the importance of aligning yourself with the creative forces of the Universe. đŤ
And fun fact, Rhonda Byrnes stated that this book is what gave her the inspiration to write The Secret!
With the first edition having come out in 1910, this is one of the first manifestation books of its time â a real trailblazer.
And as is the case with all the other classics, its principles hold true to this day!
One of my favorite insights from this read is that creation, not competition, is the key to creating wealth.
I think weâve all gotten into a competitive â maybe even envious â state when working to earn money.
But just take a deep breath, send good vibes to everyone else in your industry, and remember that creativity is key!

6. Good Vibes, Good Life
Unlike the last few manifestation books on this list, Good Vibes, Good Life by Vex King is a bit of a newer read.
Itâs crazy to think that 2018 is over five years ago now, but still, itâs more recent! đ
The book is essentially a holistic guide to cultivating positivity and fostering personal growth.
King blends practical advice with spiritual insights, offering you a roadmap to transform your life.
Itâs not super common to find manifestation books with an emphasis on self-care, positive lifestyle habits, and mindfulness, so pick this one up if you could use more of that in your life!
And as with any other good book on the subject, there are also plenty of tried-and-true manifestation techniques to craft your dream life. â¨
Thereâs a little something for everyone in this read!

7. The Power of Now
Leave behind the past, donât fixate on the future, and live in The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle.
(Iâm pretty proud of that lead-in, not gonna lie.) đ¤
This book emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and explores the concept of mindfulness.
The book delves into the nature of consciousness and the ego, providing practical insights on how to achieve inner peace and transcend the challenges of the mind.
To be honest, however, this one may rank lower for me when it comes to manifestation books.
Lots of valuable insights, 100%, and Iâd still recommend it (obviously, it is on this list), but Iâm not a big fan of the tone Tolle uses in his writing.
Super minor, and again a great book with lots to be learned, just may not be for everyone.
Hereâs my favorite quote: âPower over others is weakness disguised as strength. True power is within, and it is available to you now.â

8. Ask and It Is Given
As promised, the true take-action choice of manifestation books is Ask and It Is Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks.
The book presents a series of teachings channeled from the non-physical entity Abraham, offering profound insights into the art of deliberate creation.
Abraham emphasizes the importance of emotional guidance, explaining how to raise your vibration and manifest a life of joy, abundance, and fulfillment.
But easily my favorite part of the book comes at the end, which includes a series of practical manifestation exercises.
Divided into 22 processes, the useful techniques provided are designed to align your thoughts and emotions with your desires.
From the powerful âSegment Intendingâ method to the âBook of Positive Aspects,â each exercise is intended to fine-tune your vibrational frequency. â¨
My absolute favorite is the âRampage of Appreciation.â
Each method is seriously so powerful, and the book goes into a lot of detail to describe how to carry out each one.

9. The Four Agreements
Another oldie but a goodie, weâve got The Four Agreements by Miguel Ruiz.
Ruiz imparts ancient Toltec wisdom through a modern lens, offering a code of conduct to achieve personal freedom and true happiness.
The four agreements are as follows: Be impeccable with your word, donât take anything personally, donât make assumptions, and always do your best.
The book encourages you to question your perspectives, release negativity, and embrace a more conscious and intentional way of being.
The beauty of this book is that the principles are simple to read and yet detailed, including plenty of practical tools.
And my favorite quote: âYou can have many great ideas in your head, but what makes the difference is the action.â

10. The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success
Any book from Deepak Chopra is sure to be a good one, and that case holds with The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success.
Chopra delves into timeless wisdom, blending Eastern philosophy with practical insights.
Each law, from âPure Potentialityâ to âThe Law of Least Effort,â offers a profound perspective on success â urging you to align with the natural flow of the Universe. đŤ
With its holistic approach, the book not only outlines strategies for material abundance but also encourages a deeper connection with the self and the world.
And yet another short read when it comes to manifestation books, this one is only 115 pages.
So make sure to pick it up!
It may only take you a few sittings to get through it, but afterward, youâll cherish it for a lifetime. đ¤

Final Note on Manifestation Books
Let me tell you, it was SO hard to narrow this post down to just 10 manifestation books!
I also want to add, there are plenty of other books out there that may not seem like typical manifestation booksâŚ
Say books on positivity, making money, building a business, etc.
One in particular I have to give an honorable mention to is The Happiness Advantage.
Seriously the most interesting book on positivity Iâve ever read!
