There is a book placed on a suitcase. I want to open the suitcase. Please tell me if the following sentences describe it correctly.

1) I moved the book aside from the suitcase and opened the case.
2) I moved the book off the top of the suitcase and opened the case.
3) I took the book off the top of the suitcase and opened the case.
