The books as far as Mechanical or any other engineering branch varies across IITs and NITs.The most important thing right now is to focus on getting a good CPI and maintaining that on a long term basis.As you go into 3rdyear , you would be pretty thorough with what books you need to refer or study for GATE.

These are the few books which are followed in IITs & NITs for GATE MEchanical Engineering.
Engineering Thermodynamics : PK Nag
IC Engine: ML Mathur and RP Sharma
