Yes the second season will be based on the second book. I read the second book first after finishing the show and was fine, there's only 1 main event that keeps getting referred to in the second book that never happens in the show but otherwise you won't miss a lot. However, I would recommend reading the first book first. The show changed a lot of things, the main theme of book was the same in the show but the fate of some characters was different and some events happen differently in the book. Tried to keep my answer spoiler free so didn't go into too much details. I think I have a list somewhere that compares the book to the show if you want that.
