Best books to learn Rubik's cube & speedcubing, in order
Speedcubing is a ladder of methods, so the reading starts with a beginner's layer-by-layer solve to build intuition, then moves to the faster CFOP method and its algorithm sets. Only after that come finger tricks, look-ahead, and the drills that shave seconds off. Climb the methods in order, because trying to memorize advanced algorithms before you understand the cube just doesn't stick.
