Thank you for the recommendations! While I have not seen either of those books before, I have another book by the author of the first one, Stephen Blundell. It's Quantum Field Theory for the Gifted Amateur, and I think you might like it. Not as a standalone quantum book, but perhaps as a supplement to a more "serious" treatment. edit: I just saw you recommended this below!
