Hey there,
Congrats on your interest in chemistry! I’ll briefly answer your questions.
What books, websites(youtube channels included), or magazines would you guys recommend?

The American Chemical Society (ACS) has some cool stuff. Check them out. They recommend magazines on their site.
I own tons of chemistry books and I recommend you just read what interests you honestly. The chemistry world is pretty big...I can recommend a book for you to pick up for college though! See below! I guarantee you will love it. It will aid you as you go through your degree, whether you decided on the chemistry or chemical engineer route.
How could I prepare for getting a degree in chem?

I wish I had this book during my undergrad years. Work on your math skill. Your love of chemistry will take care of the rest. I believe the math is the biggest deterrent for most people.
What fields are there in chem besides organic and inorganic?
The main branches are: Physical, Inorganic, Organic, and Analytical. There are many subjects though that branch off the basics of the main branches though. Examples: Material chem, biological, photochem, catalysis, surface, environmental, gas, electrochemistry, nuclear, radiochem, and the list goes on...I hope this helps. I can answer more questions later. Good luck!
About the math for chemists resource, there's a book called The Chemistry Maths Book that touches on most of the math you'll see in chemistry (from very basic arithmetic to calculus and statistics). It also has examples and is very concise.
This recent Science paper by the Meyer group on decamethylferrocene dications! http://science.sciencemag.org/content/353/6300/678
Not sure it counts as 'Chemical Literature', but I'm also half way through the Chemistry Maths Book (https://www.amazon.com/Chemistry-Maths-Book-Erich-Steiner/dp/0199205353). Regret not reading this properly back in my undergrad days.
