Find Your Drive is a short book written by Billy Monger, aimed at middle grade children, which is 8-12 year olds for those on my side of the Atlantic.
I have followed Billy’s story since his life changing accident, so decided that despite being far older than the targeted readers, I wanted to hear how he has motivated himself to overcome his challenges.
Billy is a wonderful role model for young children and teenagers. Very often anyone trying to impart help or positive approaches to life, can be met with a response of, “Well it was easy for you”. I wouldn’t have thought that anyone could aim that retort at Billy.
I loved the section on friendships. Explaining that it’s ok to like different things from your friends, it is ok to have different hobbies and passions. The book addresses how to cope with anxiety, which is sadly on the increase in children; stereotypes and assumptions, and bullies. The importance of having a positive inner voice is also discussed, which is something I always advocate for.
I would highly recommend this book for any child or teenager, and I’m sure many adults would find positivity in the pages too. He is an engaging narrator, his voice is as positive as his words, but never talking down to his readers. It very much feels like Billy is alongside you, gently coaxing you forward, helping you to find your own path.
I loved to hear of Billy’s next challenge, I don’t doubt for a second that he will achieve his goal. I look forward to cheering him on.

Find Your Drive is an uplifting and accessible audiobook from Billy Monger, whose own voice brings real power and authenticity to every chapter. It’s easy to follow, clearly structured, and packed with practical lessons that young people can genuinely use — from building resilience to developing strong personal and social skills.
Monger’s story is extraordinary, but the way he tells it makes the message feel relatable rather than intimidating. His focus on stepping outside your comfort zone, backing yourself, and learning to navigate challenges with confidence is inspiring without ever becoming preachy. Hearing him narrate his own experiences adds emotional weight and makes the audiobook feel personal and motivating.
A strong four‑star listen: engaging, encouraging, and ideal for young people who want a role model who’s honest, determined, and proof that you can achieve remarkable things by pushing your limits.
I am grateful to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced listener copy of this recommended book

I’ve been following Billy Monger’s career since his accident, and so I was very excited to listen to this audiobook, which did not disappoint!
I really enjoyed the fact that Billy narrates the story himself. It helps to add emotion and weight to his story, by letting him share his experiences himself. I love use of the pit stop sound effects towards the end of each chapter.
The book focuses on stepping outside of your comfort zone and how to overcome adversity. I loved the use of real-life examples and experiences from Monger’s life to help him get his points across.
Overall, I am giving this book a solid 4 stars. I would recommend the book to young people and motorsport fans, who are looking for someone to look up to.
