Goodbye 20th Century and No Setlist are easily the best.
I like Confusion is Next a lot and generally find it more inspiring than Goodbye 20th Century but far less informative. Goodbye sometimes felt like a bit of a slog and the enjoyment I got from it did at times rely a a bit too much on my thoughts about Thurston and Kim as people rather than the band in general. It is packed with info though.
I stopped reading Psychic Confusion about midway through.
the 33 1/3 Daydream Nation book is, as jennthebenn mentions, almost jawdropping in its badness. Borderline unreadable but at times almost enjoyable in its wrongness. Psychic Confusion was just dull.
No Setlist is a fantastic book. Obviously very different to the others but wonderful nonetheless.
