A must have https://www.amazon.com/Manual-Mineral-Science-Cornelis-Klein/dp/0471721573
We used Klein and Dutrow for our mineralogy class and I thought it was a pretty good book (but a bit lacking on optics). I kept it for a reference book as it details many of the more common minerals in identification, structure, occurrences, etc.
A mineralogy textbook would be a good start, this is the one we used when I took the class (https://www.amazon.com/Manual-Mineral-Science-Cornelis-Klein/dp/0471721573). Or maybe this (https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Mineralogy-William-Nesse/dp/0199827389), although I haven't read it myself.
