All those mentioned are great books to read. I'm tossing in "Practicing Rails" and "Rails 4 in Action", I'm also going to say it doesn't really matter. What I think does matter is you start working on a rails application, even following one of the many tutorials; at least work through a couple of full examples so you have something real to hang what you're learning upon.
