Anthony Iwuchukwu is an independent author and entrepreneur, known also as the founder of Make Money Directories. Amazon+2Medium+2 His body of work spans self-help, relationships, history, and financial guidance. AllAuthor+2Medium+2 The books tend to be relatively short, focused, and written for readers looking for practical, motivational, or conceptual insights rather than in-depth academic treatises.
Because many of these books are published via Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), they have flexible pricing and sampling (you can read a sample on Amazon) — though that also means the depth, editing polish, and production value may vary.
Below are some of his notable titles, with my review impressions and direct Amazon links.
Reviewed Titles & Impressions
1. Boosting Self Confidence: A Guide to Greater Assurance
Link: Boosting Self Confidence Amazon
Overview / What it tries to do:
This is a self-help guide aimed at readers who feel stuck or insecure. The goal is to offer strategies and mindset shifts to help boost confidence and self-assurance.
Strengths:
-
Direct tone: The writing is motivational and encouraging.
-
Actionable tips: There are steps and suggestions (though not always deeply elaborated) to help a reader take practical action.
-
Accessibility: Because it’s not overly long, it can be consumed in a short time, which is good for people who prefer succinct reading.
Weaknesses / Areas for improvement:
-
Depth: Some chapters cover big topics in a relatively short span; more depth or examples might help.
-
Editing/flow: As with many indie books, there are spots where the transition or phrasing could be smoother.
-
Universality: Some suggestions may not fully apply across different cultures or life circumstances.
Impression:
If you’re looking for a relatively quick motivational read with some direct pointers on building inner confidence, this is a useful start. Don’t expect it to replace a comprehensive guide or deep psychotherapy, but it can spark reflection and small changes.
2. Understanding Romance: What Keeps the Spark Alive — Physical Intimacy: Keeping the Flame Burning
Link: Understanding Romance / Physical Intimacy Amazon
(Note: Amazon lists it under the larger “Sparking Love: Nurturing Everlasting Romance” series.)
Overview / What it tries to do:
This is a relationship / couples’ guide focused on how to maintain physical and emotional intimacy over time and keep romance alive in long-term relationships.
Strengths:
-
Focused niche: Many relationship books touch on intimacy in general; this one homes in on sustaining the spark.
-
Practical suggestions: It includes exercises, communication prompts, and reminders for couples.
-
Readability: Short and to the point, making it more likely readers will finish it and apply some ideas.
Weaknesses / Areas for improvement:
-
Limited scope: Because it is brief, it doesn’t deeply address all challenges (e.g. trauma, mismatched libido, deep relational conflict).
-
General advice: Some recommendations are broad/common sense (which isn’t bad, but not groundbreaking).
-
Cultural lens: The examples or assumptions may lean toward certain cultural or relational norms, which might not resonate universally.
Impression:
It’s a helpful motivational/reflection tool, especially for couples wanting a refresher or spark reignition. Use it as a companion guide rather than a definitive relational blueprint.
3. Forging America: A Journey through the 18th to Early 20th Century
Link: Forging America Amazon
Overview / What it tries to do:
This is a historical work examining the formative periods of America, from colonial times through the early 20th century, exploring political, cultural, and societal transformations.
Strengths:
-
Ambitious scope: The attempt to cover centuries of change in one narrative is bold.
-
Accessible language: Easier for general readers rather than academic historians.
-
Interest spark: Good as a stepping stone for those who want an overview before deeper historical reading.
Weaknesses / Areas for improvement:
-
Brevity: Because it covers so much ground, the book is necessarily compressed (only ~26 pages in its Kindle version). Amazon
-
Depth and sourcing: The brevity limits the number of sources, critical perspectives, and nuanced interpretation.
-
Oversimplification risk: Complex historical events may get simplified or glossed over.
Impression:
This is a decent introductory or supplementary read for people curious about U.S. history in broad strokes. Just go in knowing you’ll need additional reading for depth and context.

Context specificity: Some advice may assume access to certain financial systems or opportunities that vary by country/region.
-
Depth: For someone well-versed in finance, some chapters might feel introductory or basic.
-
Examples: More real-world case studies or detailed examples would boost credibility and relatability.
Impression:
Solid for those beginning a financial journey, seeking a mindset shift, or needing motivation to manage money better. It won’t replace a full financial planning manual but can be a good first step.
