The best advice you will find will come not from books but from asking the good gardeners on your site what they do.

I have had lottie for about 18 months so 2nd growing season coming up.  My advice echos a lot of the others here - don't go too mad this year.  All I grew last year were raspberries, potatoes, french beans, courgettes, sweetcorn and onions - all in just 2 beds.  That way I got a feel for how big the plants get, how much care they needed etc.  This year now I am going to add some peas, carrots, lettuce and leeks.

Can also recommend the Caroline Foley book and the Hessayon for good basic information.

Not too sure about the Hessayon book personally, but I picked mine up on e-bay for next to nothing!  ;)

Any of the books by Joy Larkcom are best for up to date advice, but I have a large collection of old vegetable growing books which are fascinating, some from the First World War and before are especially so
