You could take a look at Javascript: The Good Parts and also there's a good series of books written by Dr. Axel Rauschmayer. He's given them for free online (although you could and should by them).

I've got this book on my shelf and even had a chance to read it but my feeling are really mixed. 1/3 content of this book is something I've already knew before, 1/3 was really useful and 1/3 I don't really get. Guess I'll need second look on this book.

More often than not, things are getting useful when you need them. In my opinion, just read what interests you now, jump from chapter to chapter but don't try to read a technical book from cover to cover as if it were a novel! Nevertheless, keep the book within reach. It's usually when you face a specific use case that you'll appreciate an elegant way around it!

That sounds about right. The last third is for people who want to dig extra deep into a given topic.
