I'm already reading Kleppman's book right now. Tons of very useful knowledge, although quite detailed, and a lot of details around distributed computing, consensus algorithms etc (Part II), which I'm not sure I will need and which make the book rather long. Still, surely worth pressing through.
Some titles I would like to dive into in the summer:
- "The Art of Immutable Architecture" by Michael Perry.
Possibly also:
- "Machine Learning Design Patterns" by by Valliappa Lakshmanan et al.
- "Building Secure and Reliable Systems" by by Heather Adkins et al.
And perhaps something lighter, more inspirational for the day to day work:
- "Coders at work" by Peter Seibel
