Sorry about that! That was the first time I used the library catalog system since they changed it up last! Here’s a link to it on Amazon!
That made the engineer in me tingle 
Dev,
As Joe pointed out the ARRL Handbook, even an old copy is a good book to put on your shelf. There should be several at your library. I would check out the ARRL website for other titles, all of them are pretty good. Check for a hamfest in your area. Should be one coming up soon as most areas have a midwinter fest in larger urban areas. You can pick up components for next to nothing. Bring a pack so you carry stuff home. you should be able to find little kits and lot’s of books if you just look around. ARRL retailers usually carry their book inventory to the fest.

If you hurry, I think they are still shipping for Christmas. As Don pointed out, digital electronics are a world away from analog circuitry. RF is much different than audio, etc. Start off with basic AC and DC circuits. Learn DC first so that you can see how components function and then move to AC from there. When I went through school, DC was an entire semester and a per-requisite for everything else.

I’m going to be taking an online course from a friend teaching this:

It’s kinda pricy, but I think it will be well worth it.
