Read something on the border between 'recent stuff' and 'grand and epic' like the Hobbit, which is a modern classic modelled on ancient mythological and archetypal themes. Go back to the basics. My dad read that book to me as a child and it sparked a love of literature which I enjoyed studying in school. Just my suggestion, best of luck with your readings anon.
