Thank you!

The book is challenging, no doubt about it. The key is repetition. The book isn't a one time read. You have to keep going back to it after referencing several other books like "Concrete Mathematics" or the MIT OCW course on "Mathematics for Computer Science". It is a multi-faceted book and you might miss a few things the first time but you will start figuring stuff out by reading and talking to people as you go. So get started without a doubt.
Helpful Tip:
The book has a lot of proofs, and the foundation of any mathematical endeavour and in turn one that of computer science is to prove that a specific algorithm works. You can watch a few videos about proofs in the link I've pasted below: [link]
If to take one book, "Concrete Mathematics" By R. Graham, D. Knuth, O. Patashnik contains a lot of relevant material from discrete mathematics and some of probability theory.
