First off, I’m a beginner to this kind of programming. So I was looking for a beginners book.

I picked up Beginning Visual C# by Wrox. This book was suggested to me by a few developers where I work. So far I like it a lot. Not too slow, and not too fast. I don’t have a C background, and I noticed several books start off with the idea that you do.
The one negative is they focus on VS .NET, as if everyone has it. (ok, I do, but still it can be considered a negative as they talk about how to do things specifically using VS.NET)

At the bookstore (B&N) I paid too much, you can get it here for less;

check around for better deals.
