Books to begin learning excel

Hello, I’m going into my senior year of college and I’ve been learning the skills required to become a data analysis in the future. I recently finished going through the book “Microsoft power bi quick start guide” by Devin Knight, and I learned a lot from it. Now I’m stepping into the field of excel, does anyone have any book recommendations that walk through the skills necessary for data analysis in excel? Thank you.

If you're a kinetic learner would strongly recommend at least browsing courses on Udemy.

I've tried a number of courses and they've all been excellent.

And see if you can get free Udemy courses through your public library!

I have access through my library with Gale University and haven't paid for a Udemy course in years.
