The monthly updates are generally purely to patch found security issues. They shouldn't impact any of your apps (unless your apps were making us of one of those vulnerabilities ;) ). As long as the Android major release version is staying the same (it is) I'd go ahead and install the update to ensure your phone is protected.

You can find a detailed list of the patched vulnerabilities here.
