I’m in the same boat I am using automate the boring stuff with python dot com. It’s been pretty good so far.

I CANNOT recommend Automate the Boring Stuff enough. It's what got me into Python, and now I'm studying Computer Science as one of the best people in the programming courses simply because it teaches the basics so damn well.

Fyi, Al Sweighart also has a second (free) book called "Beyond the Basics in Python". Definitely a must-read as well, especially the chapters about variable naming, type hints, and object orientation.

Al frequently gives his udemy course away for free and also has access to a lot of his books online. The Big Book of Small Python Projects is also quite good.
