Most of the books are outdated (don't include DataFrames or Spark ML and focus on RDDs and MLlib). The one I particularly liked is "*Learning Spark*". It starts from the basics, but has lots of useful tips on caching, serialization etc.
The online docs <https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/programming-guide.html> are also of great quality.
