There are so many books out there, here's a couple I have read and
enjoyed.

For security, I enjoyed Essential PHP Security by Chris Shiflett
(O'Reilly) as well as Php|architect's Guide to PHP Security by Ilia
Alshanetsky (APress).

And for PHP OOP, I liked PHP5 Objects, Patterns, and Practice my Matt
Zandstra (APress) as well as Beginning PHP5 by Dan Squier (wrox press)

Hope these help, Good luck
