Will update list as I find more plant ID books I like! In my opinion, a lot of the moderate plant ID books tend to be better for learning, but if you want to go at a slower pace, grab a more beginner one. I don’t recommend getting an expert level plant ID book until you can comfortably navigate through a moderate one. Have fun identifying! :)

Great video! I like the live view of plants not just photos. Very informative!

Lovely selection! Personal favourite is probably Anemone nemorosa (non-US). I think the Buttercup there is Ranunculus hispidus/caricetorum - R. acris doesn't have the compound leaves and it usually flowers way off the ground.

Does the entire plant die away after a few weeks or just the flowering part?
