Well as school has started once again and I basically lost most of my knowledge on astronomy (and my friend stole her book back) I need to know some good textbooks or just regular books that I can buy secondhand so I can study from them. Thanks :)
Oh and I'm not a beginner/novice, so please don't recommend something like Astronomy for Dummies :D

Universe.
You simply must buy this book. I've even written a review for it (under M Carter). It's absolutely awesome.

"Foundations of Astronomy" By M.A. Seeds.
It is a basic college text book, but very understandable even for the non-physics person.
It is available used from the usual college campus sources and places like Amazon.

Anything by Steve Massey or Rod Wodaksi leap to mind!

If you can stand the "gee-whiz" in it, Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" is a good one.
