I found Thomson's book called modern particle physics a great read
https://www.amazon.com/Modern-Particle-Physics-Mark-Thomson/dp/1107034264
I really enjoyed Thomson's Modern Particle Physics, but it's aimed at advanced undergrads who have taken quantum mechanics. It's a great book for understanding modern phenomenology, as it was published in 2013.
My graduate particle physics class used Modern Particle Physics by Thomson (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1107034264/ref=pe_385040_30332190_TE_3p_dp_1) which I liked better than the Griffiths book (which I used during the graduate particle physics class I took in undergrad). Good focus on experimental results and how they tied into the development of the field, if I recall correctly.
I'd switch out Griffith's 'Elementary Particles' book with Thompson's Particle Physics instead
