I would like to hear some easy books to learn basics of number theory from.

I have almost no knowledge about topic to start with, so book should start with very basics. I'm currently on high school, but the book would be used just for personal interest.

Thanks

Try A Friendly Introduction to Number Theory by Joseph H. Silverman.

The first six chapters are freely available.

I'm also a high school student, and I am reading Number Theory by George Andrews because it was advertised as accessible, but did not find it to be very much so. It is pretty difficult for me, but very interesting and rewarding. I would recommend it if you are willing to do a lot of work and thinking!
