I recommend Koblitz’ “Elliptic Curves and Modular Forms”
It stays more grounded and focused than Silverman’s “Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves,” and provides much more detail and background, as well as more exercises, than Cassel’s “Lectures on Elliptic Curves.”
Is this thread still being maintained? There was a recommendation for it to be a wiki page which seems like a great idea; I’d be willing to put the initial page together in a couple weeks if it hasn’t been done but I don’t think I can commit to maintaining it.
