Everyone who has computer should have a A+ book. And nobody should pay into a school to teach them . YouTube is the best teaching for mastering your computer .

Get your A+ because it tells organization you are trained and you put the effort to be certified!

You don't need to read a book to study. I knew a bit before taking the test. And watched Professor Messer here on YouTube to learn the rest. That was 10 years ago, and Professor Messer is still up to date.
