About the Book: Unfortunately, there isn't any 1 book that can help you out with CSS. I can suggest to use Amanullah Gondal and JWT book, but you will have to do other readings to make your analysis strong, Fortunately, this is a very interesting subject that you will enjoy and the readings will be fun. There are alot of YT videos that can help as well, some of them just narrate the facts, but that is all what one needs. Since we all have a gender that means that we all have opinions, so we just need some key facts here.
Gondal's book is basically copy paste of recommended books, but recently we have been seeing them giving a lot of opinion based questions, so one has to read quality stuff. This book is like flash cards that one can use at the end, but not good at all in the beginning. JWT's book is very basic and has facts, but it is again copied from the internet.
Remember that this subject in west is seen differently in east
I will be suggesting readings chapter wise here:
Introduction to Gender Studies
Difference between Gender and Women Studies
Multi-disciplinary nature of Gender Studies
Autonomy vs. Integration Debate in Gender Studies
Status of Gender Studies in Pakistan
For this you should use the JWT book for facts, and The State of the Discipline of Women Studies in Pakistan in Social Sciences in Pakistan Rubina Saigol.
You can find a PDF here on CSS forums. If you are not satisfied then I would Suggest using 50 key concepts in gender studies for anything relevant

YouTube: YouTube is your BFF for CSS, just search all topics and there will be helpful videos. Ted Talks and Daily show are really good sources as well. Trevor does some really good interviews with important women and Desi Lydic and Micheal Wolf have done good reporting on the daily show about women issues (just watch what is relevant) Here are some that I found useful:
