Blackshirts and reds by Parenti. Then look up marxists who wrote about fascism. Your best bet is those who experienced fascism, but also lived long enough to have full historical context of the end of the biggest European Fascist movements.
Probably books from around the 50s or 60s will be the best source.
Contemporary scholars can also be good, but it is more variable, because many have never experienced fascism. This is a problem because fascism is a "fashionable" topic. Thus grifters who have no clue to also write about fascism just to make a buck.

Fascists and communists secretly like each other. So don't read anything by communists.

fascists are not our enemies. we need to make alliances with fascists

clearly Homage to Catalonia by George Orwell, or Animal farm but modern Antifa types mostly read poorly written substacks on queering dildos.

Glad I'm not the only one who's noticed this. It's like borderline sexual tension it's fucked

The difference between a fascist and a communist is how they justify empowering the state to benefit the favored oligarchs.

Animal Farm comes across way more of an anti Soviet text.

it is referencing Stalinism but there's overlap between anti-authoritarianism and anti-fascism.

When I was a communist I use to read a lot of fascist literature and somewhere along the line I developed a deep respect for them. But I never said anything positive about fascists on /leftypol/. I am pretty sure that a lot communists share this sentiment but due to peer pressure they never say anything.
