If you can't do anything without a book (Like me), get "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan"

I know you can print things out and bind them but it's just not the same.

Crockford's "Javascript: The Good Parts" (aka "the butterfly book") is a much quicker read, and will result in better code.

I disagree. Probably a good idea to get both though. "The Good Parts" is interesting, but doesn't have a complete language reference.

I thought I was the only one who needed books. I can't read long articles/tutorials online and always take a print or get a book.
