Better Textbooks than Griffiths for Particle Physics 101

[Jamestein Newton]

Griffiths "introduction to elementary particles" serves a great introduction as a first course on particle physics for undergraduate students.
But what are the possible alternatives of this textbook? Like being more beneficial in the long run, more time-consuming, for aspired students. But it must be at the reasonable level! Since I have mentioned it's for first course on particle physics.

Explain with reasons.

On the first glance I found peskin "concepts of elementary particle" a more beneficial book with more modern approach. I don't look into the technical details. It also reviewed all the way about the past progress of particle physics in a more compact and organised way.

Compared to Griffiths, for what level are you looking: lower level; same level; higher level?

around the level of the first course on particle physics in undergraduate as I said.
Can be higher, but not too high

I am just looking for a good enough introduction and not sure whether those two are.
I will read those two at the same time but mainly Peskin

Well Peskin has also included some references on the first course in particle physics. I believe in Peskin

like Thomson M., Griffiths. I'll also take a look on Thomson M. then now I would read three books at the same time. I think it's enough

I would recommend this then: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0198748566/?tag=pfamazon01-20

Maybe not applicable for a whole university course, but I really like Wolfenstein and Silva's

Are you more into theory than experiment?

If you are into theory, I would suggest not spend too much time worrying about these introduction books, get Griffiths and then move on to learn about group theory, QFT, differential geometry and topology
