I would advice to prepare your own notes by referring to standard text books. You see, there is no single book which covers all the GATE syllabus. So you have to refer many books to understand the concepts. While referring to multiple books, do not forget to make your own notes.

Here are some of the GATE books for CSE:

Algorithms:Introduction to Algorithmsby Rivest,Cormen, Stein, Leiserson, generally known as clrs. There is no beating this book. It is like the bible for a CS engineer.

Operating System: "Operating System Principles" byGalvin.

Theory of Computation:"Theory of Computation"byUllman. Another one is"Introduction to the Theory of Computation"byMichael Sipser.

Computer Networks:"Computer Networking: A top-down approach"byKurose-Rossand"Computer Networks"byTanenbaum,

Computer Organisation:"Computer Organisation"byCarl Hamacher.

Programming and Data Structures: Have a good hold on basic programming in C.Coremenis good enough for data structures.

Graph Theory: "Graph Theory with Applications to Engineering and Computer Science"byNarsingh Deo.

Database Systems:"Database System Concepts"byKorth

Compiler Design:"Principles of Compiler Design"byAho and Ullman.
