Mike Meyer's books (and other texts prepared by Total Seminars employees) tend to take a more relatable, folksy tone. I used it as a supplement to the Sybex/Dulaney Security+ book when the latter was too obtuse for a particular topic.
Easy to follow, but broken up by topic differently than guides like Professor Messer's. I especially like how this guide points out differences between terms used on the test and more those more common among professionals, as well as other cases where instructions on the test might be vague.
This is a really handy book to have for reference. I have the paperback version. I use it cross-check GPT results and as a guide for going deeper into specific topics.
