Summary:: Looking for articles/books to prepare myself for the course: Quantum computation with superconducting qubits

Hello everyone. I am about to take a course in Quantum computation with superconducting qubits and I am searching for material to prepare it. I took a first course on that subject and it did not go so well: I got lost in most of the explanations and concepts. That is why I would like to start fresh, maybe with a good book or article recommendation anyone of you can give to me.
Many thanks in advance.

Shouldn't you be asking the instructor of the course you plan to take?
Yes. I will do so as well, but I am trying to find more literature.
 
This is in my view the best of the more recent reviews

Highly recommended.
It is also worth having a look at some of the talks on IBM Qiskit's Youtube channel, there are plenty of talks on SC qubits (since this is the technology IBM uses) and some of them are reasonably beginner friendly
