I am taking Linear Algebra II this coming fall semester and we have been using the textbook Linear Algebra - Fraleigh, Beauregard. Can anyone recommend me some supplementary texts that can further my understanding of linear? I feel as though the current text does not do a great job.

Lay is commonly used. My first course used Anton, which I found readable. Axler's text is a meme, but still probably worth checking out. And then there's Strang.

Linear Algebra Done Right by Sheldon Axler is a pretty good read if you're willing to tackle it. Would also recommend the Essence of Linear Algebra by 3Blue1Brown if you are interested in a Youtube video format which takes an intuitive approach to explaining the finer details of the subject

The playlist is here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZHQObOWTQDPD3MizzM2xVFitgF8hE_ab

Although this isn't a text, if you're into lectures, Stang's classes on OCW 18.06 linear algebra and 18.085, which is an applied class which goes over linear algebra are cool. (also useful to binge watch and practice problems)

Why is Axler a meme? I find his proofs conceptually clear and easy to read.

Schaum's Outline of linear algebra, Hoffman and Kunze if you want to learn it well.

I studied linear algebra from a lot of books, but only one taught me what is the determinant of a matrix.
Abstract Linear Algebra by M.Curtis. I'd say it's even better than Shilov. For linear algebra that is. Shilov contains some multilinear bits, but even then there are better resources for that once you are ready
