Book recommendations regarding agnosticism and religion in general

Question

Hello!

I've been an agnostic theist ever since I changed schools from the Catholic school where I had previously attended. I recently felt the urge to learn about the topic and so I am here to ask what are some books you may suggest to me about agnosticism in order to further my knowledge Friedrich Nietzsche seems like a good starting point based on my research, however I'm worried about the difficulty of the subjects I would be dealing with since I am unfamiliar with him.

Thank you!

"Demon Haunted World" -Carl Sagan

This book is what finally let me close the door on my religious beliefs and childhood indoctrination.

Agnostic: A Spirited Manifesto Book by Lesley Hazleton is probably my favorite book on the subject. Agnosticism is a very healthy way to live if you can be comfortable with some uncertainty.
