So it might not be the quick answer you want, but I get asked this a lot by friends so I have a package of recommendations put together in an email with links and setup instructions etc., I usually copy and paste - if you're asking for yourself I'd be happy to forward it to you if you put an email in your profile or something temporarily so I can find you.
In short though I used Hartl's Railstutorial, an old Sitepoint introduction to Ruby and Rails, everything Railscasts... then I started coming up with projects and building (or often half-building) them. Stackoverflow helped me with answers. Google was my friend because so often people had blogged answers I was looking for.
Learning to read other people's code was the biggest step forward. But after the basic tutorials, it was mostly building things. Finding problems. Reading answers. Experimenting.
Could you make your list publicly available on a blog or something similar so everybody can see it, please? (So those who'd like to see your package of recommendations won't spam this thread for requests.) If that's okay with you. Thanks!
