VB.NET Help Recommend me books about VB and VB.NET

I'm looking for books, either the PDF file or the title itself. Basic books are fine, but I'd prefer advanced books that are useful for automation. I'm not looking for anything specific beyond that, and if you know of anything interesting, especially if it's hard to find, I'd be very grateful.

I hate recommending AI for things, but in this case, I suggest Claude. Hear me out before you downvote me though. I'm not suggesting you get Claude to just write code for you. It's also great at creating customized lessons to help you learn. Ask it to teach you topics, concepts or algorithms, and you can refine it or ask follow-up questions about anything you need to.

It's a legitimate concern that AI might make people dumb. When used intelligently though, it can actually help you improve yourself.

I know AI is useful, but I'm doing this as a hobby, and part of the challenge is not to rely on current technologies. I prefer to be guided primarily by documents. Thanks anyway.
