For anyone coming back to math I can't recommend enough the book "Journey through Genius: The Great Theorems of Mathematics". It's interesting how much of algebra came originally from geometry and the path to developing these fields makes it so much more intriguing / understandable vs just learning math to learn math.

Similarly, I've been enjoying "The Joy of X" as additional context around the fields and how they connect in an entertaining wyay.
