Having also read Capital, Hadas Thier's book is an awesome summation of Capital if you don't have the time to delve fully into it. Explains all the key concepts in a super acessible way and gives relevant current day examples and applications. Also touches on anti imperalist and anticolonialist points as well. Only like 300ish pages as well if I remember correctly.
There's a new book called A People's Guide to Capitalism by Hadas Thier that's pretty good. Michael Roberts, a Marxist economist who has a very nice blog, reviewed it here. Roberts also has his own book abt this, Marx 200: A Review of Marx’s Economics 200 years after his birth which is also a great intro book and is much shorter too.

I've read the Roberts blog from time to time. Good stuff. Doesn't he consult and stuff for banks?
