You've already received several good responses regarding books. I would only add one thing - are you good at learning musical things from books? There are several folks who have a lot of free YouTube videos (plus, of course, the videos here at UU) and I find those much more useful than books (not to say I don't appreciate those members here who have published books).
It's kind of funny, I am a very good reader and I have been able to learn everything I ever needed to know by picking up a book - except when it comes to music. The only music related thing I've been able to learn from books is theory - and consequently I know quite a bit more music theory than an amateur hack like myself needs to know. But, when it comes to technique - I've only really been able to learn by watching others either live or in videos. (BTW, get yourself a gig with a band - I learned more about making music in my first three months actually playing with a band than I had in previous ten years reading books and playing to bedroom walls!)
Just my $0.25 (inflation, you know) your mileage will likely vary and objects in mirror may be closer than they appear!
