Great guide to UX Design. I read it prior to starting my first UX internship and it helped me feel very prepared.

UX design 101; user studies, personas, business strategy, project management, client management, etc. Good reference for those who would like to know the basics of what UX designers are doing - also gives in-line recommended further reading. Not as much info on integrating UX ideas into the visual design side; an interesting read nonetheless.

A Project Guide to UX Design is a great introduction on how to run a UX project. I just received the opportunity at work to be a UX Designer, something I have yet to experience in my short career, and this book really helped me grasp the basics of what I should be doing. It provides plenty of ideas and details supporting their methods, and I've used much of what's in the book in my new role.

Whether you want to break into the world of UX or are thrust in almost unexpectedly, this is a great starting point.

Not very skimmable, and the figures aren't always useful in actually demonstrating how to do the related design/planning activities. But definitely a useful resource for reference if you're going to be designing websites.

Not that the book wasn't interesting, but...I discussed it with some fairly intelligent UX folks and while they agree that there is value, this book is not the best guide for getting into UX.
