I know this might not be the most popular opinion in the world (a lot of what I say isn't).

 

But I would advise you to not read a book about Java. I would say to watch Tutorials on Udemy or YouTube and practice.

 

I have been following a Udemy series of Java (free course) as part of a School course and I'm learning effectively at my own pace.

just use tutorials on youtube and stuff

books have a disadvantage of not being updated without the need to buy a new book.

 

I would use the vast amount of data on the internet and then if you want a book I would go for some methodology such as OOP though these are also on the internet.

How I "learn" a new language, is easy. Think of something you want to build. Find some example code. Modify code. Add things.

 

My most used websites for "help" are w3schools and stackoverflow. With those 2 sites, you can figure out alot... And as @vorticalbox said, books get outdated FAST.

learning the syntax of any given language is the easy part creating coherent and reusable code that isn't a pile of trash. That's the hard part.
