Mr. Syme has offered a good list to begin. I would like to follow that list up with a number of other good works:
The NAB you have is an approved translation, but I highly recommend using the RSVCE.
It is certainly a good idea to buy Sacred Scriptures and the Catechism right now. These two pieces of literature are essential to any Catholic's library. The Missal is very good for your devotional life, especially if you are converting and have no prior experience with our Church.
Be sure to balance your reading of non-fiction works with some good, rousing fiction as well. The brain needs to find itself in fantasy every now and then. Chesterton, Tolkien, Lewis, and Waugh are all good authors.
Theology and Sanity by Frank Sheed is a fantastic read that I would strongly urge every Catholic to read. It really helps tie together a lot of church teachings into a coherent whole which really helped shape my worldview. Some say it's a hard read so Sheed also wrote Theology for Beginners which I hear is an easier read. Also, if you look closely at his videos, you can see the book on Fr. Barron's book case.
