The html5 and css books

Are they actually any good? anyone got them?

Personally I've found this one to be of great help.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTML-CSS-Design-Build-Sites/dp/1118008189/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371168644&sr=8-1&keywords=html+css

The style is uncluttered minimalist which is great to use as a quick reference to a topic for which you may already be familiar. It's been a great aside to the Treehouse tuts (instead of watching the tuts again for the quizzes I just browsed to a relevant chapter).

A big +1 for this suggestion

I find it to be most well-designed reference book I've ever seen.

I just bought this. Thanks for the suggestion!!

I have the books. They're fantastic. Brilliant for looking things up and double checking. The actual teachings in the books are very good too.
