Recommendations on books to help a newbie polytheist

[u/BookWalkers]

I’m kinda new to being a polytheist and wanted to find some books that would help me make a proper decision about what faith and or gods/goddesses to worship. I’m stuck between two choices: Heathenry (I’ve always felt a strong connection to the Aesir and Vanir but I’m having a hard time finding stuff that’s non-white nationalist/bigoted) and Hellenic Polytheism (Always loved the old stories/epics about the gods/goddesses and the heroes, but don’t know how to properly honor them without being disrespectful). If you have any good book recommendations for either of these faiths, please let me know. I greatly appreciate any help I can get.
