Yeah, it's more like "learn allong the way". Not that you can't read books about the OS, but it's a very fast shifing OS, way more than BSD variants. So, if you read a book published, let's say, 10 years ago, some if the things in there might not apply now.
Just learn from forums/reddit, places like that. Ask questions, you will receive answers ๐. Start with something that works out of the box (Ubuntu or any other Ubuntu/Debian based distro). Poke it around, see how it works, try to install this or that, see how the dependency issues are resolved, etc.
If you're a GUI enjoyer, try KDE as the desktop environment. Better yet, try a distro that comes with KDE by default (Kubuntu or KDE Neon).
