You might want to start with Caro's Book of Poker Tells

(I recommend poker for social skills, I do not recommend as a way to attempt to make money)

One thing I learned from poker is that body language/facial expressions/tone of voice is not super specific.

It's often as vague as a person . . . likes something . . . is neutral . . . doesn't like something.

And that's often plenty good enough for social interaction.
