The language-specific books have always been helpful in getting me to discern whether I'm making a syntax error or a logical error. When it comes to implementation, I lose interest very quickly if it's something that has already been done reasoning that I can just use someone else's implementation. So this way, I "fill in the blanks" with what I want to implement, knowing that an error or unexpected behavior is entirely my misunderstanding of the logic and not my misunderstanding of the language.
