Introductory reading
I recommend that any newbie to Stoicism starts with the book Unshakable Freedom, by Chuck Chakrapani. It is a quick read, and breaks the concepts down into a very easy-to-understand format.
He also has a freely available Kindle translation of The Enchiridion, called The Good Life Handbook, which I highly recommend as well.
From there, the best beginner/intermediate guide is Stoicism and the Art of Happiness by Donald Robertson.
