What are your top 3 favorite books on basic-level game that you have read so far?

*I am looking for some summer reading material ideas.

Krauser is top notch.

Roosh, duh.

Sex 3.0 by JJ Roberts is great for an internal paradigm shift. I am constantly quoting or explaining his views in order to sexualize my conversation with girls.

Bang, of course.

Day Bang, of Course.

Mystery Method. The early 2000's pua stuff doesn't work anymore but it's really a good jumping off point. You'll see what can be done if you put in a little effort.

There's way more than 3 books, though. Read The Game, read Christian McQueen's books, read everything you can get your hands on but more importantly get out in the field and apply it.

What is the difference between Bang vs Day Bang? Is it that Bang is more geared for the bar/nightclub scene, or is it that Day Bang is a continuation of Bang (or vice versa?) I would be interested in reading both actually, but I am wondering about the differences between the two.

They are completely different game plans for different settings. Roosh based this on the myriad differences in social settings (night club at 1am vs coffee shop at 3pm, alcohol vs no alcohol, bitch shields, cockblocks etc).

Bang, Day Bang, Tony's Lay Guide.

TLG gives you a good primer on different game tactics and frame.

I have read Bang! and Day Bang! and Mystery Method and I think all three are excellent books. Two books I don't see mentioned often here but which I think are on par are:

1. The Natural: How to Effortlessly Attract the Women You Want by Richard La Ruina. This is a good book to recommend to a recent blue pill convert because it takes a slightly softer approach to gaming women.

2. Rules of the Game by Neil Strauss. This book goes a little deeper into the self-improvement side of game, such as improving one's posture, conversation science, etc.

1.The Natural (Richard La Ruina/Gambler). Good book, and much more for "natural game" kind of guys.

2.Models (Mark Manson), best for inner game that I've ever seen. Outer game is limited.

3. Make Women Want You (Jason Capital), the book I got into game with. Good advice and well written.

Bang is by far the best entry level book on game ever written. I'm not just saying that because I'm on Roosh's forum. I've had several of my friends buy the book from his website whereas I will usually just tell them were a product is located for, ahem, considerably less than retail.

In my opinion, the three best books for the beginning gamer would be:

1. Bang by Roosh
2. Magic Bullets by Nick Savoy
3. The Juggler Method by Juggler (because it really helps with conversational ability, not running out of things to say, etc.)

Honorable mention: Mystery Method by Mystery

I have almost every game product ever written and I would say these are the best for a beginner just starting out with no knowledge of game.

I would also have the prospective student read the Heartiste archives, especially from the early days: 2007-2010.

And I would also steer them to the YaReally archive over at http://yareallyarchive.com/
YaReally is one of the most astute commentators in all of the manosphere or game related blogs. You can learn a lot from his analysis of game.

The Book of Pook is also a great place to start.

Not a book, but ROK's sponsor this month - Good Looking Loser - has an approach anxiety program that is pretty good.

I feel like reading about game is a bit like reading about fitness. It can be incredibly life changing and helpful, but you still have to do the work. I love theory as much as anyone, but if you're looking for an exercise routine to apply while reading, GLL's pretty good.
