Logical chess move by move, by Chernev, algebraic edition. Easily the best book you could read at this stage of your development.

True. Inspiring and a great place to start.

Then, if you are bright and motivated, read 'Secrets of Modern Chess Strategy' - Watson. This is an absolutely fantastic overview of modern chess strategy. There is no better strategy guide.

And if that has you hooked, then 'The Road to Chess Improvement' Yermolinsky is another insightful and beautiful book.

Don't waste time on random endgame or opening books. Remember chess is art, so find an author/ artist who inspires you.
