tournament, sit'n go or cash game?
Actually, whichever way, if you are a very beginner, start with Dan Harrington books, they're easy to read and enjoyable.
Cash games actually :)
Try Harrington on cash games (haven't read them myself, but I read his tournament ones when I started).
Then go on with Sklansky's no limit theory and practice.
The standard books are
Theory of Poker by Sklansky, very very good but examples are from games besides holdem
No Limit Holdem Theory and Practice by Sklansky and Miller, again very good.
There's also alot of good ebooks available like
Easy Game by Balugawhale
Small Stakes No Limit Holdem by Ed Miller
The Poker Blueprint by Tri Nguyen
These are all good books from what I've read.
Books suck compared to the amount you can learn just by posting hands/chatting with good players or reading updated content online.
Use the money you would spend on books and deposit it and play 2NL after reading the BC Digest.
after you learn the rules/basic hand selection and stuff read the theory of poker
LIBRARY HAS A GREAT SELECTION OF BOOKS!
I like Online Ace, NLHE Theory and Practice, and found The Psychology ofPoker extremely helpful

Read the sticky. I won't lock it because I'm nice.
hey why don't you lock deez nuts
whoops thought you were luck for a sec, carry on
the eight mistakes in poker is an essay by david sklansky is another good read that's fairly short and should get you to thinking about a lot of the right things
funny, I don't think I have that one yet
read all the stickies and then spend the $20 on a month of grinderschool.com
