I don't usually review books until I have finished reading them but I will make an exception with How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog by Chad Orzel. To me this is the best primer to quantum physics I have read so far, due mainly to Orzel's witty style and uncomplicated explanations of very complicated material. Although he does not delve very deep into each area, he provides a good understanding before tackling more academic books on the subject. Even subjects such as decoherence and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle are explained to help the layman understand what they are.
