Struggling with getting through the blue book, is it really that necessary?

I picked up the blue book a bit over a week ago and despite reading it decently consistently, I'm still not done with the squat section yet. The specific "Do this" instructions with images are quite helpful and informative but I find I'm not really able to wrap my head around most of the more technical/anatomical stuff that seems to make up the majority of the book. It's honestly a little demotivating. Due to this I was looking around and it seems that the Starting Strength YouTube channel seems to have a lot of material from the book adapted. Is it possible to use the video material instead, or is the blue book really required?
