Functional Programming in Scala is amazing. Highly recommended even for non scala programmers.
Second, come check out the #scala channel on Freenode. It's fantastic, has a REPL bot so you can show everyone in your compiler issues and get realtime help, tons of people, always active, very beginner friendly. Give it a shot.
