What Real Estate Book would you recommend in my situation?

I just finished "The Book On Rental Property Investing" by Brandon Turner, and I have to say it was a great spectrum overview of the buy and hold side of REI. I'm trying to choose another book now, but I'm unsure which one i should commit my time to next. I have not invested in any properties yet, but I am planning to in the early next year. I hope to in that time read a few more books.

Having listened to 100+ podcasts, I've heard repeatedly the name of many recommended books. I know there's also the best 21 list by BiggerPockets, but its tough to dissect the book by its cover/overview. 

Rich Dad, Poor Dad I feel is more for grabbing peoples interest in Real Estate, but my interest is already there. The four hour workweek seems like a way to better automate your business to save time, but I am not at that stage yet. 

I am looking for a book that will help me expand my knowledge in buy and hold, and avoid mistakes. Would Millionaire Real Estate Investor, The ABCs of Real Estate, or "How I turned $1000 into 5M..." be worth my while? Please help me decide my next read!

@Brandon Turner The man, the myth, the Legend! 

I did not see that specific link, but the BiggerPockets Best 21 Books Ever link is very similar. I'm just going to have to dive in a bit deeper to make my decision. Thanks, and keep doing what you're doing. Big fan of the podcasts, webinars, and your rental property book was excellent as well!
