I've done a few approaches and plan to do more. My gameplan is do approaches until I can very confidently give compliment and ask for numbers. Then go to clubs and test out pua tenchniques(I know, outdated, whatever. Even just for the fun) The question is what are good books for each phase? I was about to jump straight to "mystery's method" but I see not relevant until the future. Some books I've heard were good for regular aproaching/dating(not pickup) are make small talk(I think) and never split the difference(regular communication books. SO what books ae your favorites for approaching/pickup? Things you wished you've read earlier. The goal is read>implement>repeat until I feel good enough to go to clubs.

So what are they?
