Try searching YouTube for 'getting started with Linux' or something like that. I've seen plenty of videos like that, but I'm out of town with only a tablet and searching them is a pain.
The amount of distros and their differences can be overwhelming. That's why I recommend just installing Linux and getting your feet wet. I'm guessing you didn't read books about Windows or Android before trying either of them.
I'd recommend starting with Ubuntu because there's just so much support available for it. Once you feel comfortable with Ubuntu, you can try other distros.
