What do you want to learn?
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

I'm mainly interested in inorganic chemistry, but I will gobble up some organic chemistry reading as a side dish  ;D

This is the undergraduate book we used in undergraduate inorganic. First 4-5 chapters should be understandable untill it starts talking about symmetry operations. Inorganic Chemistry
by P. W. Atkins, Duward Shriver

I recommend just requesting it from your local library.
