Recently I started teaching a friend of mine C# and moving into XNA as we go along. However he's use to learning in a textbook instead of just a tutorial or a PDF with some small projects in it. So my question, What are some good C# textbooks? and Also textbooks for XNA. I personally have not found any XNA textbooks only beginner books that show a few aspects of XNA and that's about it.
(By "textbook" i mean exercises at the end of chapters and etc)
C#/XNA textbooks
I enjoyed reading: Learning XNA 3.0 by Aaron Reed, now of course this is not a 4.0 book, but maybe he has one.
XNA Sites I recommend:
http://xnaresources.com/ <- Start here!
http://www.xnadevelopment.com/tutorials.shtml
http://www.riemers.net/

"Professional XNA game programming: for Xbox 360 and Windows", by Nitschke, Benjamin
"Essential C# 4.0", by Mark Michaelis
"C# 2010 all-in-one for dummies", by Bill Sempf
These books cover most of the basics needed for game development in their areas with some advanced subjects and I highly recommend them.
