No book necessary. Get Netter or Grant.

Med students like Netter's cuz they get it for free if they join AMSA. Although it has amazing pictures, that's all it has (with labels).

Grant's has more descriptions/captions so you actually know what you're looking at.

OR you can get both. And a Rohen so you know what the crap things are in the lab.

How recent do anatomy textbooks have to be? I have an old Grant's atlas from 1991, is that too outdated to use?

Netter's flashcards and BRS Anatomy to supplement the course syllabus was more than enough for me. I also used Rohen to study for practical lab exams, but I didn't buy it.

Second that, though I'd buy the Rohen and maybe throw on an Anatomy coloring book if you're a visual person.

I have used both Netter's and Grant's. Netter's illustrations are a lot better, plus the anatomy faculty tend to prefer Netter's so if they want to refer to something in lab, I've found that to be the preferable one to have on hand. No personal experience with Rohen, although I've heard it's very good for anatomy lab.
