There are many fine and recently published books that deal with various aspects of the Israeli occupation and with contemporary life in Palestine. Below I will simply list a half-dozen I have found particularly helpful and instructive. Most of these books have extensive bibliographies and lists of other resources, and you can’t go wrong with any of them.
