I haven't read books on the subject, and have never been a PM explicitly, except for my own projects. But I was once managed by a PM and what stuck with me from him was this:
This approach has helped me a lot with my own products.
One more thing I try to do is explicitly explore the most uncertain part of the planned product ASAP to remove the uncertainty. That doesn't always work (the last 2 days I was fighting a problem I thought was solved by a library), but when it does it makes things much easier.

Honestly I don't read many books explicitly related to product management, I like lean startup and some others like that. We had to read a book a few years back where I work called Scaling Up which was super interesting, kind of only makes sense for companies that are growing super fast...but really insightful either way - particularly as it offers a really nice framework to help set your business up strategically, remain goal oriented etc.
