I'm currently mainly a coder, but I also love graphics design and design in
general. I would love to improve my overall design awareness. Does anyone
have any book (or any other resource such as website, magazine, mailing
list, whatever) to recommend ? If so, I would be grateful!

By far the best books for non designers to learn the nuts and bolts
of graphic design are
The Non-Designers Design Book and
The Non-Designers Type Book
both by Robin Williams.
available from Amazon and elsewhere.
For those of us coming from an engineering the step by step approach
these books will teach you
far more than the traditional "be inspired by this" approach to
graphic design. Those coming from a design
background will probably find it a bit narrow.
Cheers
