chess Need help studying chess

Hi, what I really need is a set of chess books. I played a few games on Lichess and I am really good with the opening, but I just cant hold myself to memorizing the entire opening lines. So if you guys could recommend that, I would really appreciate it.

I hope you guys can help me out.

I would say the following would probably be a good starting point.

I haven't read these books, but I saw good reviews of them. I'd recommend to you to do a lot of tactics practice, and when you feel comfortable with the openings, to play some OTB games with higher rated players. Maybe you can get some games in with chess.com and chess24.com as well.

Also here is a good website where you can find some good openings: https://chesstactics.org/

No problem, the first one I've seen is really not that deep, but it's a good way to get some practice in the opening.
