Book recommendation please

[Simonee]

Hello,

Can someone please recommend a C sharp book? I am absolutely new into programming and I will start from scratch, and its important to be a book so I can read it outside under the sunshine :)

I would just print out online tutorials (that is how I learned, no degree, and I am a software engineer now. School is till a good idea though). One book that I liked was called (if I remember correctly), "Head first C#", or something like that. A good one to read after you have the syntax down is "Effective C#: 50 specific ways to improve your C#". Good luck!
