The website "AllAboutCircuits" is a good resource for you. In addition to an online textbook, there are videos, practice problem sets, and even a very well-attended series of online forums where you may post questions:
In my general experience, your own education will benefit from having a wide exposure to a number of books on whatever subject you study. In this sense, there really is no one "best" book for you, because it's very valuable to get multiple perspectives and different explanations for the fundamental concepts -- especially when you are studying on your own. My own personal library contains many books which are "gems" on particular topics. Among my favorites:
"Electricity One-Seven" by Harry Mileaf is a great book for beginners.
"Introductory Circuit Analysis" by Robert Boylestad is a classic for taking you beyond basic concepts and showing you more of the applied mathematics of DC and AC circuits.
"Semiconductor Circuit Approximations" by Albert Paul Malvino is phenomenal for understanding all the basic transistor amplifier configurations and how to use certain simplifying assumptions and network theorems to speed analysis.
"Modern Operational Circuit Design" by John Smith is one of the best books on operational amplifiers ever written, in my opinion (sadly it's long out of print).
Another resource I highly recommend is Horowitz and Hill's "The Art of Electronics". One of the authors, Winfield Hill, is a regular contributor to CR4:
