First books to read

[Hugo Hernandez]

Hello! I've been wanting to read a good about real estate investing, not sure where to start though. I haven't started yet, but I'm setting up a plan and would like to educate myself more before I go through with it. Any suggestions to what I should read? P.S. I'm in the Miami market!
