I haven't made a ton of headway, but I have a good grasp at the alphabet at this point. Once you get that, the rest will be easier--don't bother trying to romanize it, it doesn't translate well that way.

Check out this playlist, I just found it a couple weeks ago and she's uploading a new video every week. The rest of her channel is good, too, but this is where you want to start: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYRZupz6rdw&list=PLx1Hrg5Bg3xrnm30dNPZ5q2R9J6Zz2vUq

I have a ton of PDFs and other ebooks for Russian language as well--though I don't learn really well that way.

I also found this playlist a while back, though it's considerably drier--maybe it will work better for you. She focuses a lot more on the alphabet and handwriting: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF2F566484C119BF4

That is fantastic advice
