I just posted a topic similar to this in the Home Games forum a couple days ago.
(See Here)
There wasn't any books recommended to me, and most of the thoughts in the topic are me just thinking out loud about the scenario, but the other guys in the thread had some valuable insight.
The prevailing thoughts seemed to be:
1.) Tight in Early Position, Loose in Late Position (stealing blinds is at a premium)
2.) Conserve your Chips (don't follow the crowd and limp into every pot just hoping to hit the flop, save them for a real hand)
3.) Learn to love the words "All-In" (you'll inevitably end up in a few pre-flop all-in scenarios, so instead of shying away from, learn to embrace them). Don't cripple your stack by putting in 2/3 of your chips. Keep your stack big enough to be scary when you do go all-in. When you get that hand you've been waiting for, with the action you've been waiting for, go big or go home. There's no shame in getting sucked out on if you go in with a dominating hand.
4.) Implied odds are not good. Don't go slowplaying big hands, or praying for sets, hoping for a big payday. If everyone is on a short stack, you're not going to get paid off big often enough on these longshots.
