      "F# Deep Dives" is very practical and should work for beginners: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1617291323

      I thought for sure I was the only person who hops between 5 books at a time. I'm reading:

      * Domain-Driven Design: Tackling Complexity in the Heart of Software (Eric Evans)

      * F# Deep Dives (Tomas Petricek and Phillip Trelford)

      * PostgreSQL: Up and Running AND PostGIS in Action, 2nd Edition (both by Regina O. Obe and Leo S. Hsu)

      I'm eyeballing Purely Functional Data Structures by Chris Okasaki (1999) and a few others for after I finished the Postgres books.

      Interesting note from TIOBE about F# just yesterday:

      March Headline: All time high for F# at position 11

      Microsoft's programming language F# is about to sneak into the top 10. It is not clear why F# is gaining popularity. Possible reasons might be the F# web-programming framework WebSharper and the promotional work of the F# Software Foundation as Tomas Petricek (author of "F# Deep Dives") stated in an interview about 2 weeks ago.
