Hey everyone I'm currently reading The Game by Neil Strauss but I'm finding it more story like and it doesn't really explain that much to someone starting out.

Does anyone know any good books for a noob to read that are straight to the point with openers, techniques, routines etc?

Hey man. Im recently starting out too. I read The Game and enjoyed it a lot. I'd advise you to keep reading as it is a decent book but from a guide perspective it isnt very good. I dont have a very in-depth knowledge of pick up yet so I'm not going to brag and act like Im a massive pro that knows all the books cover to cover. But from the hand full of books I've read I would recommend Magic Bullets by Savoy. Its basically just a guide without any pointless chit chat and it can't do any damage to give it a read yourself and see what you think.
Hope I helped mate.
