I've been considering writing a graph database on top of SPARQL and RDF. Beyond the official docs (which are pretty good), can you recommend any other resources for easily getting the hang of SPARQL?

I worked in a semweb company ~10 years ago - https://jena.apache.org/ as a general starting point is a useful library. I remember distinctly OWLIM https://www.w3.org/2001/sw/wiki/Owlim as a great triple store.

I cannot! I have just recently learned about it and am doing so for leisure, not for skill. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much use.

In fact I would love to know if someone else does have any other resources too :)

I'll second the recommendation of Jena (and associated sub-project Fuseki). If you know Java (or any JVM language) you can use the Jena API directly for manipulating the triplestore, and submitting SPARQL queries. If you don't want to do that, Fuseki exposes an HTTP based API that you can interact with from any environment you prefer.
