I just finished the Javascript Objects module and understand very little of it. Does anyone have suggestions for additional material, books and/or websites that will explain in more detail? Thanks!

Courses Plus Student 44,108 PointsPrinciples of Object-Oriented JavaScript explains objects in great detail, but it might be a harder read. You could also take a look at Kyle Simpson's this & Object Prototypes. It's available for free on GitHub.
JavaScript objects aren't an easy topic, and as you explore them further, you'll discover they're more complicated and nuanced than you expected. I suggest patience. Move to a different area JavaScript and then come back. At this stage it's important that you understand the general concept, you can get into it later.
