Here are a few suggestions that I have and the ones that I've read:

For a Bitcoin beginner:

1) The Internet of Money by  Andreas M. Antonopoulos - A good book for beginners who find it hard to cover up and understand the technical parts of Bitcoin mentioned in the book - Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas himself. I suggest you read this book first and it should really get you to understand the basics of Bitcoin and its purpose.

2) Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money by  Nathaniel Popper - It provides a historical viewpoint of events and enterprenuers setting up their start ups and the overall story of Bitcoin and how it evolved. It has a good bunch of stories about prominent startups their success and failiures towards the end. Good read if you like Bitcoin documentaries.

For a technical explanation:

1) Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopoulos - Tells you things from Private keys, public keys, explains you how to use the Bitcoin core client about the protocol and future enhancements like the lightning network. This is just a brief, it covers in-depth a lot of topics and this is open source. https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook

2) Bitcoin and cryptocurrency technologies by Prinston University - http://bitcoinbook.cs.princeton.edu/ (This is going to be my next read right after I complete reading Mastering Bitcoin)

Thank you for the sources. I am also looking for one. I started reading Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopoulos and I must say this is must read for starters out there.
This is amazing and very nice to see that people are writing books about bitcoin, we are very buying bitcoin but I get information about bitcoin form YouTube and google, the other source I use for bitcoin information by bitcoin talk where every kind of information is available it will improve your knowledge and you will better participate in every feature of bitcoin earning, I would try mastering bitcoin next time to enhance my knowledge more and more.
