Getting Started with Astrophysics: An Exploration for Beginners

[hockeysam]

Hey everyone!

I've been accepted into an astrophysics master's program for this fall and wanted to get a head start before classes begin. During undergrad I took several courses in astronomy/astrophysics and really enjoyed studying these topics. But the problem is that I don't know where to start. Does anyone have book suggestions that would help kick things off?
