Hello,
I would recommend to use a book first because it covers the entire topic but if you have limited time then use notes. Notes actually cover the main key points related to topic but for book it covers the topic in depth.

Should I only read 1 book or more than 1 book? & Should I read only main books or main books + alternative books ?

One main book is actually enough related to the subject, for more information watch video lectures and make notes or search some sites which already have notes like https://www.savemyexams.com/ you don't need alternative books but if you like reading then you may go through it

Books are awesome for getting into a subject, but notes are like your quick reference guide. They're great for reviewing before exams or jogging your memory on key points. I find https://notesonline.com/notepad super handy because it keeps everything organized and easy to access on the go. Plus, you can search for specific info in seconds instead of flipping through pages. I think it's all about finding what works best for you—mixing books for deep dives and notes for quick refreshers. What do you think works better for you?
