If you can borrow someone's course notes even better as they do not stray from there. Your friend may have simply buckled under pressure or he did nothing but read the books. It helps to go through examples and play in your database. That way, when they throw you a question with different wording then what the book had you will be ok. Reading the manuals wouldn't hurt either (well, skimming them actually).

I will advice you not to concentrate on one book. The reason because of limited knowledgebase, it is always better to hve multple books, even they are expensive.
