It would be helpful if you said what context you're studying linear algebra in: are you planning to do some kind of programming? Are you in some engineering discipline? Are you going to be doing quantum mechanics? Higher-level math (e.g. abstract algebra)?
I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you're heading towards comp-sci/electrical engineering, given what you've heard.
One good textbook is Lay's text (look for an older edition if you're going to buy it). It's particularly because of its clear explanations and definitions and plenty of helpful graphics.
The cons: while it covers least squares, it does not cover SVD. Also, the solutions in the back are sometimes wrong or vague, but most questions are google-able. I would still start with this (especially since you're doing self-study) and look up a higher-level reference once you have a solid understanding of eigenvalues/eigenvectors.
