Hello Everyone,
As someone who’s religious beliefs are on a shaky ground, what books on atheism can you recommend me to read?
I’m looking for something for beginners / down-to-earth.

My recommendations are oriented towards people with a christian background, that said a lot of the ideas involved can be applied to religious belief systems as a whole.
Isaac Asimov’s guide to the Bible - an annotated version of the old and new testament that provides additional clarity and historical context.
The Skeptics Annotated Bible by Steven Wells - A version of the King James Bible with annotations written from an Atheist’s perspective.
The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins - A book that walks through a lot of the logical fallacies, magical thinking, and cognitive biases that Dawkins sees in religious belief. As the title suggests the tone of the book is rather aggressive (which I think is a bit counterproductive) but if you can read past that there’s a lot of good information.
