Chess books for Xmas

Hi all

What chess books would you recommend for a beginner? I'm looking for books on tactics, openings, etc. 

I've been triggered by the Queen's Gambit on Netflix to discover this game (on top of many other personal projects). I know I could study chess on this website, but I'm basically looking for books to complement my learning.

Due to a very busy and demanding job, I don't have much time so my main goal is to progress from 'beginner' to 'intermediate'. I learn fast so looking for highly actionable books & tips.

Thanks for your advice!

ba eu iti recomand ,, play winning chess" de yasser seyrawan deoarece am auzit ca acopera cam toate fundamentalele. am sa o cumpar si eu, dar nu sunt sigur de indata ce nu stiu rating-ul tau , daca esti un incepator care nu stie aproape nimic iti recomand canalele de youtube " chess talk,, care e un canal care explica si te invata sau " adgamator,, care e un canal care analizeaza partidele marilor jucatori, ca si carte am vazut intr-un articol ca potrivita pentru incepatori absoluti cartea ,, Lets play chess: A step by step guide for begginers" de Bruce Pandolfini ar fi printre cele mai bune optiuni. nu recomand carti care studiaza deschideri deoarece nu ajuta incepatori ( cel putin asa am auzit eu)
