The curriculum itself mentions the recommended books.

The people whom I know who passed the part A read the following:

Easterbrook MRCP Part I Questions
Kaplan Notes (USMLE Preparation)
Books which you read during your mbbs for anatomy, physiology, pharmacology (Eg: Chaurasia, Dutta, Ganong, Tripati, Katsung, etc(
Clinical Biochemistry
Clinical Pathology from Robbins (General Pathology)
Biostatistics/Evidence based medicine
Clinical Medicine from CMDT or any text for topics in curriculum

What ever you read, just make sure you have gone through everthing mentioned in the curriculum. Remember that you may not clear the exam if you are not well prepared.
