I started reading Understanding Basic Electronics by Larry Wolfgang. He explains well and keeps it interesting. Good chapter on algebra to help with things like Ohms law. The American Radio Relay League looks profitable too.

Also get Horowitz and Hill, The Art Of Electronics.
Signals And Systems For Dummies is pretty good.
An old copy of Reference Data For Radio Engineers will be cheap and handy.
Are you running LT Spice? That's universal these days.

No, I use Geda for making circuit diagrams.

What.. no "Radiotron Designer's Handbook?"
I have a couple of those and never open them. It hasn't aged well.
Jim Williams' two books on analog design are fun to read, but not actually technical references.

I used that for a classroom text when I taught in the 1980's
