There's the Codex, CA2019, and Pyschic Awakening: Blood of Baal? Anything I'm missing?

Only one of them is good.

But shrikes and skyshlashers are in a weird spot of not being in legends, but not being in the Codex either.

To sum up.
Of course the main rulebook

Tyranids
Codex for most of it.
Blood of Bhaal for special Tyranid rules
IA index xenos for FW units (I would say more than one are good, but one is especially good)
Index Xenos 2 for a couple of our units that don't have models currently
Chapter approved 2019 for some points and maybe rules adjustments.

GSC
Codex for most of it
Vigilius defiant for some special GSC rules that are pretty good
Chapter Approved 2019 again

I think that is everything unless you are bringing in guard units in a BB detachment, but I am not sure what beyond the Astra Militarum codex would apply there.

And lastly any FAQs on GWs website for those books.
