I learned finite elements from a more formal, mathematical perspective and so that's the kinds of books that I usually look things up in. The ones on my shelf are Brenner & Scott, and Braess. Braess is often a bit more intuitive, but it's still a math book at the end of the day. I also have a German one by Grossmann & Roos that I like because it is more written with applications in mind. This may not be useful to you because of the language, of course. There are many finite element books written from the engineering perspective. I don't know them well. You may want to go to the library and see whether they have anything by Zienkiewicz, Hughes, Oden, Wriggers, or others.
