Reading list

Im reading two books at present (though I'm dipping in and out of several others). These two are, "Buddhism", a Teach Yourself book by Clive Erricker and "You Have Been Here Before: Reincarnation" by Seiyu Kiriyama.   I suppose reading the first one mentioned shows that I am still really naive about Buddhism as I suspect a teach yourself book is likely to be one picked by us raw beginners; I still feel though I need some form of guide as to what to actually do...I can practice and follow the Dharma but is what I think is following the Dharma anywhere near right?
