Marcella Cucina
This was my first Hazan book (from either of them), and one of my favorites. The layout and lovely photos make it more approachable then Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking. It's still a cookbook I go to when I'm looking for something interesting for dinner.
Recipes include Ahead-of-Time notes which are very handy. In the Pasta chapter, each recipe has a Suggested Pasta section, very useful for learning what kinds of sauce go best with what kinds of pasta.
