Here is a VERY comprehensive poker library listing: My Poker Library (updated). If you start reading some of those books you'll do nothing but start improving. Once you start reading a few books, you'll hear the same authors names a few times. Start picking up some of the books that you hear over and over. If you plan on staying with SNG's you should definitly pick up "SitnGo Strategy " by Collin Moshman.

Hell I've been playing seriously for close to a year and am only at .1/.25. So take it easy and if you follow bankroll management, you will be fine. |

The selection of materials listed seems rather broad. I think you'd be better served to focus your learning on whatever it is you plan to play most right now and in the immediate future. If it's SNGs, there are at least a few books you can look for.
In addition, given you're willing to spend some money, you might also want to consider signing up for an online training site. Again, you should look for one that is a good fit for what you want to learn. |

I have a feeling Harrington's books might be too advanced for you--also you definitely need to read up on bankroll management. Good luck in the tournament and be sure to study the Little Green Book--its great!
