I would suggest considering many other books in addition to “the” book recommended by the author, such as Eloquent JavaScript. In fact, reading multiple books will offer multiple perspectives on the language, and result in a richer understanding. I would also suggest having an actual project in mind while learning. It can be something very simple to start, such as creating the game Tic Tac Toe. But that will force you to apply what you are learning. In other words, try writing and maybe even rewriting the project based on what you learn.
