There's a note in Sebastian Raschka's LLMs-from-scratch github repository - "Recommendations for Getting the Most Out of a Technical Book".

He recommends reading offline and code-free first (although chapter-by-chapter).

Ask and... ye shall receive! Check out `Hands-On Large Language Models: Language Understanding and Generation`.

...I wanna mention this book as well, although it doesn't fit the criteria: https://www.thelittlelearner.com[

You don't need to code to follow it, just read along

I read it in a cabin on a lake, far from any internet access, and without a computer. I still found it quite useful.
