Any suggestions on how to prepare for FANG (excluding Apple) interviews at L5/E5 (possibly L6/E6) level?

So far I'm reading Cracking the Coding Interview (seems too low of a bar) and LeetCode. I'm not sure how to best prepare for design questions as well as if I'm studying the right topics at the right levels.

I would like to leave my company in about two months but could extend that if two months is too short to prepare for and complete interviews.

I have referrals from people I've worked with at all of FAANG which I understand can help shortcut the process.

Edit:
Here's the full list of material I've been suggested to study by friends. It's more material than I have time to realistically cover which is partly why I'm asking this question. I'm not sure which areas to focus on and which tools are best for that.
