If you want a definitive, classic biography, Ada's Algorithm: How Lord Byron's Daughter Ada Lovelace Launched the Digital Age by James Essinger is also fantastic.

For computing history, absolutely check out The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage by Sydney Padua.
It is a brilliantly researched graphic novel packed with historical footnotes, primary sources, and early computer logic that follows the "Enchantress of Numbers" herself. It even features an alternate universe where they build the Analytical Engine.
