I have some results and there seems to be a consensus for Sedgewick's. There was a course on Coursera mentioned.

Close second is Kleinberg's and Skiena's.

TOACP and CLRS apparently are considered reference reads and not starting material.

I think I know pretty much where to start. Thank you all.
