Is it too late to start learning Latin at 18?

I’m 18 years old. Speak Farsi, English and Armenian. Have also studied Arabic and a little bit of Spanish.

Is it too late to start learning Latin? I really like languages, especially when I get fluent enough in one to read it’s literature.
Also, could anyone recommend a textbook to start with? I was considering “Latin for Dummies,” but . . . well, don’t like the name.
