I can also recommend an undergrad text book called "The Molecular Biology of the Cell". New editions are expensive, but second hand or older editions can be had relatively cheaply.

Probably fine for the basics, but you will find some details outdated if you buy a 20-year old copy.

It's very nice to grab 2nd hand books for cheap. Saved me in linear algebra 2 years ago.

I think it's safe to say more has changed in our understanding of biology (compared to linear algebra) in the last twenty years, though.

Sure, I realized that old editions were very very cheap but very outdated, the 5th (2012?) is about 20$ that's probably the best compromise
