Pema Chodron is a Tibetan Buddhist author who has written a lot of books that are accessible for newcomers. I haven't read this one in particular, but she has a book called No Time To Lose, which is based on a highly influential classic in Mahayana Buddhism called Bodhisattvacharyavatara (A Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life).
Here is the amazon link for Pema Chodron's book:

Traleg Kyabgon recently published a book all about karma and rebirth titled Karma: What It Is, What It Isn't, Why It Matters. When people ask me about emptiness, rather than a book, I prefer to direct them to this nifty little website:

Other helpful writers are Thubten Chodron (Buddhism for Beginners), the Dalai Lama, and Mingyur Rinpoche.
If you want a heavier book that explains all the various things that Tibetan Buddhists do, you can get A Complete Guide to The Buddhist Path. I don't think you can practice much with this book, but once you're finished with it you'll be reasonably informed about how Tibetan Buddhism operates.
