The Mind Illuminated by John Yates (aka Culadasa) helped me a lot on how to structure my practice and how to deal with specific issues arising during meditation. I also find it quite well-written.

I’ll second this recommendation. It makes meditation feel more accessible.

Thirded. It reads like a ~500 page technical manual for the mind. I don't know of any other book that states things as plainly, or in as much detail.
