What are the best books on the Virgin Mary? I'm having dreams about her, but I don't know anything. I wasn't raised Catholic.

You are on your path to becoming a Traditional Catholic, the one true faith. Welcome. I suggest you look up the Marian apparitions especially Our Lady of Fatima.

I third "True Devotion to Mary" written by Saint Louis de Montfort as well as his other works, "Secret of Mary" and "The Secret of the Rosary".

Anon, are you familiar with the Rosary? You might want to look into it. It's a prayer cycle given to Christians by Mary herself. Pious legend says that Saint Dominic first received the vision of the Rosary, though this cannot be confirmed. But the Rosary first flowed out of the Dominicans and is now very popular in the entire Church.

I pray a daily Rosary and it has transformed my life. I am a much more intense Catholic than I was before I started to pray it every day. It has deepened my faith.

If you're curious, a guide to the Rosary is here:

I admit I'm lost in my faith. But I just can't see that the right path for me is a rigid conversion to a church/domination.

Some good introductory texts:

Scott Hahn, Hail Holy Queen

John Paul II, Redemptoris Mater (Mother of the Church), available at: https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_jp-ii_enc_25031987_redemptoris-mater.html

John Paul II, The Rosary of the Virgin Mary, is a very insightful work, obviously the product of someone who spent many years contemplating the mysteries of Mary.

Idolatry is explicitly the belief that the idols ARE the figure being worshipped/respected. I wouldn't expect fundamentalist chuds to understand anything, though.

I'm a Protestant who studied Mariology for a paper I had to write in grad school and I developed a devotion to Mary as a result. Now I pray the Hail Mary and the Salve Regina every night.
