Recommended PHP books

At this point, I am quite good with PHP, I am an expert yet, but I have good understanding of object oriented php, and I would like to improve my object oriented php skills, I was wondering which books would be best for me. Can anyone recommend me some good php books.

I am planning to buy one or two books.

Hi,

I really like Larry Ullman for Php books. While I haven't read his book on OOP PHP its worth checking out:

Book Name: PHP Advanced and Object-Oriented Programming: Visual QuickPro Guide

Amazon Link: http://www.amazon.com/PHP-Advanced-Object-Oriented-Programming-QuickPro/dp/0321832183/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1416261326&sr=1-2&keywords=OOP+PHP

If you want to read about php you could go to php.net and find the manual that covers everything about php and explaining and it giving examples!
