Consider Effective Python by Brett Slatkin.
“Effective Python feels like a curated catalog of short, practical rules for writing clearer Python 3 code, each backed by a brief explanation and code example. Most useful are the immediate, copy-to-editor recommendations and the checklists you can use during code reviews to avoid common pitfalls. The limitation is relentless micro-focus: many entries dig into syntax-level limitations or edge cases that read as prescriptive and sometimes repetitive. It assumes working knowledge of Python and provides no hands-on exercises, so it works best as reference and polish rather than stepwise training.”
