Real Estate Development Book Recommendations

Happy almost Friday everyone. I'm in my final semester of undergrad and have fallen in love with development. The dream is to eventually work for a developer for a few years and then go out on my own. Can I get some book recommendations for someone looking to go down this path? I'm currently reading Making It In Real Estate by John McNellis.
