Is there a book you’d recommend for beginners? Something that shows the fundamentals while making some increasingly cool stuff at the same time. I remember seeing a One A Day origami book years back, but I forget what it was…

As far as paper, should I buy those pre-cut square papers or a big roll and cut it out myself? The big roll is a lot cheaper.

As a beginner, practice with whatever paper you have lying around. Basically any paper you would throw into the recycling bin. Learning the fundamentals requires being comfortable with making mistakes along the way. You aren't going to appreciate the advantages of origami paper until you know what you are doing.
