Hi MiroSpectre,
While there's no one "right" way to study, it looks like you are off to a good start based on what you've written.
The three main ways of studying are self-study, taking a course, or hiring a private tutor. Self-study is generally the most affordable and works great for many people. If going this route, PowerScore's 2 LSAT Bibles and the Testing & Analytics Package are great resources. Some students find that self-study helps up to a point, but then they need additional help (such as with a private tutor) to continue to improve.
Private tutoring is at the other end of the affordability spectrum, as it is usually the most expensive option. One benefit of private tutoring is that it can be combined with self-study or taking a course to help improve on specific problem areas, so some students just get a few hours of tutoring to help them.
Taking one of PowerScore's LSAT courses is a great middle option for most students. It's best for students who want to learn the material by hearing/seeing it in class/lecture form rather than just reading it from a book. With the live courses, you can also ask questions during the class, which is one advantage over reading the books.
Of course, the "best/optimal" way to study would probably be a combination of all of these, since learning the material in multiple forms (book, class, tutor) reinforces the ideas.
Here are a few suggestions.
First, if you haven't done so already, take a full (4 sections, 1 being the experimental) timed practice LSAT under test like conditions (meaning 2 sections back to back, 10 minute break, then the remaining 2 sections back to back). This will give you a better sense of the test (the timing, the focus/endurance needed, etc.) and provide a baseline of your performance along with showing your strengths/weaknesses.
Second, make sure you're tracking your progress by doing homework LR and RC questions that relate to the topic that you've just studied and see how well you are answering the questions.
Third, periodically take timed practice tests to see how you are improving under test conditions and notice your strengths/weaknesses. Use the results to focus your studying and review problem areas.
Here is a link to a recommended 3 month self study plan to give you an idea. Please note that this was written a few years ago, so you will want to disregard anything referring to logic games and adjust the schedule accordingly.
