I highly recommend Mindset. A fixed mindset is basically shooting yourself in the foot if you have any sort of goal whatsoever.
Facts and Fallacies of Software Engineering is from the mid-90s but basically everything is still true today.
Becoming a Technical Leader and Apprenticeship Patterns are kind of like two sides to the same coin. I read the former during my first internship and I definitely think it helped me succeed at my second internship and in my first job.
On Writing Well has an entire chapter on technical writing, but the rest of the book is fantastic as well.
> great articulation

Yes, a TL;DR would be great. I think in general, it's important to self-help/advise narratives short and to-the-point. I've read way too many self-help books that are mostly fluff, with author repeating either (1) themselves over and over again, or (2) talking about unrelated stories from their life. Good writing ^([1]) in general should be short, succinct, to-the-point, and packed with valuable information.
^([1]) Best book on the topic: On Writing Well.
