Your lines aren't meeting their end points. The first few exercises are fine, but in some of the planes exercises and the rough/organic perspective exercises, your lines are tapering off before they meet the corners. This indicates you could be lifting your hand too early, before you're actually done drawing the line, or possibly drawing the line too fast without an actual end point in mind. I'd say it's probably better to overshoot a line than undershoot it. No need to redo anything, just something to keep in mind for the future.
The ellipses look good and consistent, good job.

The Art of Brom
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
