Give your brain time to think and remember
In a similar vein, the developer of BYTEPATH used to use Github issues as their blog. I also thought it was clever. You even get a commenting and reaction system for free!

As for resources, not sure on physical books, but here are a couple of resources I found useful when I started with it: Sheepolution Bytepath's Articles

Any good quality open-source games without game engine?
bytepath tutorial takes you through the creation of a game. Code seems fine, but I haven't looked at it that hard. Unlike most tutorials, it asks you to answer some questions yourself and to implement some content yourself. Seems like a good learning exercise and translating Lua -> C++ will keep you from cooypasting.

Making games
Instead of following tutorials, follow a game making lesson. Try something like the bytepath tutorial, use whatever language/framework you want, and figure out the details of how to make it all work. It will force you to work like a real programmer: googling for how to do things until you've retained enough to solve simple problems on your own (then you Google for harder solutions).

I found a curated list of project-based tutorials to help you learn
I've noticed lots of people on here feel like imposters because they don't know how to build something from scratch. If you want to practice building things from scratch, check this repo out. It has +70k stars on github, and covers over 20 different programming languages . The projects range from simple (todo list) to advanced (build an excel clone, C compiler, and even a game). I'm not affiliated with this repo, simply stumbled on it and thought of this community.
