I have an area of interest which largely coincides with these, I believe, except I am looking to work in ML. I will look at this thread closely myself.

Thank you. I have some of the books listed in there but I had a problem with serializing the process of studying them, I tried sort of doing everything in parallel such as studying probability and Tom Mitchel's book together; needless to say that was not going too well.

That link provides a nice sequence in which I should study the books by bringing them all together in an order.
