I'm looking for some good recommendations on books for stock investing for an absolute novice.?

I have looked at stock investing for dummies, but need a few more to check out and the ones I’ve seen are a bit more advanced for someone who has no background on the subject.
wow thanks for all the input. so are all these books good for a total idiot? I’m more of a computer and science oriented person and don’t know the first thing about economics and investment type stuff. My dad was explaining to me about stock options and puts and all these other nonsense and I was just staring blankly.
