Buddhism? [Spirituality & Religion]

Lately, I've been wanting to explore different religions and forms of spirituality, and I wanted to start with Buddism. Can someone help me out? Are there are any books or any type of material that you would recommend?

A young person wants to learn about "spirituality" so goes straight for Buddhism. How cliche xD

@pianoplayingsteve: haha, I guess so. It was just something I've been encountering more recently. I've had multiple encounters this past week (my cousin who I haven't seen in forever, a DJ, elementary school teacher, and server) say they were Buddhist, and so it was the first thing that came to mind.
