It depends on what stage of your advancement as a man you are at.

I have not read a "pick-up" book by an "artist" in a long time... im well past that stage of
my development...

I have an obssession with reading new books and listening to any stuff concerning
relationships, $ex, and passing women's "tests" (not pick-up tests; relationship tests)....

Relationships:
Franco
Joseph W South
Jay Julio (cool guy with women)
David Clare
Johnny Soprano
David Deida

Sex
Daniel Rose
David Shade

Passing Tests:
I forget his name, but "everything out of her mouth is a test" was great!

i honestly can't read more than 10 pages of a "pick-up" book before thinking it sounds
just like the rest of them.... all that basic stuff - you can get from here for free.
