Sell up and Sail by the Coopers is worth a read. Ignore their boat choice and read about how they coped with cruising. It is a bit dated now but still full of good info.
Also when I was starting out for the first time I had a copy of Shrimpy by Shane Acton onboard. Anytime I got worried about if I had enough boat or sailing ability for the job I would read a chapter. He circumnavigated on a 18 foot plywood boat and when he left had never had the mast up or sailed the boat.
