I'm not a SWE, but I will say often when these types of posts come up, people throw in "work on your management/people skills!" - even if you never manage, interpersonal skills in the work place can be just as useful as any hard skills. Here are three books I recommend:

https://www.amazon.com/Managing-Yourself-Measure-Clayton-Chr...

Good luck on your journey, the fact that you're even asking these things is a great sign. :)

I usually read 2 books simultaneously because I like to read them and let certain things sink in. It provides a nice way to link some insights.
