Write book is a hard work, even a good post will spend several hours. Maybe the book is ok, but not suit you.
Hope to give you some choices. You can find programing books, which are mentioned by people in stack overflow in this year. Hope you will like this.

We are a team and building our side project now.
I think the most advantage, that my partner impress me is he is really initiative, includes (not only) use our product, find bugs, fix UI, marketing, and everything.
I'm glad to work with him, and proud of our work. We got friendships first. I think i got my answer.
Two weeks ago, i began to collect data and write website (it spent one week), and now i have a little profit.
i am proud of it, but i don't think it is startup, maybe just a side project.
I don't like "side hustle", I'm really working hard.
