A learning roadmap for algebraic geometry 

I am a masters student and I want to study algebraic geometry.
Does there exist good good book for selfstudy of algebraic geometry?

REPLY [4 votes]: As an introductory book, I will recommend Karen Smith's(plus some other's) book "An invitation to Algebraic geometry". It is very well wrtitten.

REPLY [4 votes]: In addition to the excellent text by K. Smith et al. recommended above, you could consider 
the book
Ideals, Varieties, and Algorithms by David A. Cox, John B. Little and Don O'Shea
which is very accessible, and some older texts which are more elementary and (therefore) quite readable, e.g.
-- Rudiments of algebraic geometry by William Elliott Jenner 
-- Introduction to algebraic curves by Phillip A. Griffiths
