Also consider that Sun has a ton of online Java tutorials for free.

But here's a list to get you started:
- Head First Java, 2nd Edition
- Effective Java (not O'Reilly)
- Java Puzzlers (not O'Reilly)
- Java Concurrency in practice (not O'Reilly)
- (optionally) Java Network programming (the O'Reilly one, there are other books with the same title)
- Head First Design Patterns
other books pretty much depend on WHAT you want to do with Java. As you get deeper into the material you'll want more specialised books, like
- Java Server Pages
- Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0
- Professional Java Development with the Spring Framework (not O'Reilly)
- Spring MVC and Web Flow (not O'Reilly)
- Pro EJB 3 Java Persistence API (not O'Reilly)
- Java Messaging (not O'Reilly)
and many others.
I buy on average 1 book a month, most of them getting only partially read and then used as reference.
