Ironically enough you would be really well served by reading Dominion by Tom Holland, at least the first few chapters. The pagans were cruel beyond belief.

Tom Holland, the anti-racist who defends Muslim rape gangs and whose translation of Herodotus includes a spurious defence of "asylum seekers".

Rather than watch my country go down the shitter thanks to Christians like him, I think I would rather enjoy a bit of pagan cruelty

The Golden Bough.

Read Ronald Hutton and Claude Lecouteux's books

Start with the Greeks

Gonna give you a non-meme answer as a serious practitioner: read Alain de Benoist's On Being A Pagan (the edition on Arcana Europa), then follow up on reading the people he mentions within it especially Jung, Nietzsche, and Heidegger. If you don't have a general understanding of western philosophy more broadly then make sure you have that too.
Honestly I could flood you with a ton of suggestions but keeping recommendations small keeps them effective. Better to follow threads than have a reading list.

ovid's metamorphosis, a collection of stories about the greek gods interacting with mortals, and hesiod's theogony, which is more about how the different gods came to be. for norse paganism, read the edda.

commence with the Achaeans

Iamblichus - on the Mysteries

The best book and defence of Pagan theology ever.

Paganism is not a religion. It is an exonym that describes a "group" of things so diverse and varied that they can only really be described on the whole apophatically as Not-christian
