I replied to a similar post a couple months ago here below. I'm sure you'll get more informed suggestions from the good people in this sub who actually know and/or practice TCM, but this might give you a start:

I am a beginner as well, but I will share the books I'm working my way through. They are not necessarily all beginner books as they range from general overviews to very thorough reference manuals. I hope you find something on the list that helps.

Most have Kindle samples you can download if you use Amazon.
