I like some advice on the what books I should be reading. starting out I'd like to focus on no-limit tournament holdem. I'm currently midway through Harrington's 2nd book. thanks for your time...

Read Harrington on Hold 'Em 1 - 3. Read and Post hands in the Tournament strategy section on this forum.

The Harrington books aren't set up for cash game play so why would you recommend it? PNL on the other hand is for cash games. If your into tourneys then like everyone else said ALL 3 Harrington's are a must read.

Try Professional No Limit Hold Em, I have not read it yet but it is on my list. There is also a study group working with this book in the Books and Publications Forum.

if you aren't a complete beginner, i think going through the ssnl sticky is a good idea.

Harrington's books are good. I'm half way through the second one as well. Doyle's Super System is next on the list for me. If you like the structure of Harrington, you should like super system although I've only glanced at it, so I don't know about the content.
