When you visit Amazon and check for pokerbooks you see an avalanche of poker-literature. If you had to make a choice what would be your top 5 or top 10. I would like to purchase a few books but I find it difficult to choose.

I did that but didn't find much info and the guy in that thread recommends 18 !!! titles. A bit over the top IMO.

There are a few threads here about recommended books. Do you play tournaments or cash games?

Mostly tournaments, I am currently reading Harrington and I like his style, easy to read (a relief comparing to Slansky) and very helpful. I am thinking of buying his two books on cash too and Doyle's SS.
