Taking a Lin Alg class once I start university, wanted to study it a bit in advance. It's an introductory Linear Algebra class, high school math as it's prereq...so looking for books to learn the material

Wait you're trying to get a head start on learning it or you get to choose the books you use in university?

I'd advise you this great series of videos that you'll (hopefully) give you a great intuitive insight on linear algebra: Essence of Linear Algebra - 3blue1brownAlso, try taking a pen and paper and doing writing what he is doing, it's not by merely watching that you get to understand, you need to get your hands dirty. |

If I want to study science from books, then I try to find an interesting encyclopedia:/

Gilbert Strang's Introduction to Linear Algebra was historically the book of choice at many universities, but it seems to be being partially supplanted by David Lay's Linear Algebra and its Applications. If, after studying the introductory material, you find yourself desiring further material on linear algebra, you can do no better than Steven Roman's Advanced Linear Algebra which, despite its title, is quite readable once you are acquainted with the basics.

Other than that, I'd go for those free for-all courses at MIT/Harvard free online courses at either edX or their own websites. |

I have a copy of Axler's linear algebra done right (2015) on my harddrive, pm me if you want me to send to you
It's a bit advanced but very good.

been using Linear Algebra and Geometry by Igor R. Shafarevich, think libgen has a copy of it.
Fischer - Lineare Algebra (german) and Bosch - Lineare Algebra (german) are also good.
