I don’t think doing this on your own will be effective. I would only recommend these Mel bay books if you have a teacher to work with you on it

And even then these Mel Bay style beginners books are probably good for 6mo at most before you should be playing actual music

Flamenco in particular is something else. How you grow your nails, how you use your wrist, all this stuff is something you don’t want to spend hours at home doing only to realize you built a bad habit that will never sound right or even worse lead to RSI
