I've liked Cracking the PM Interview by Gayle Laakman. It's an interview book, yes, but it gives a good overview of the role and different frameworks to think about it. Also, Youtube videos by Product School.

As an engineer/wantrepreneur, Whenever I go to TechCrunch, I feel FOMO. It seems like all they care about is touting large valuations and creating hype around them. At the end of the day, they think that is news-worthy. I prefer IndieH
