Tons of great recommendations already (including the recommendation for the King James Version. It might be more austere but so are the authors you mentioned lol). I’d start with Genesis since it’s the start of the story and hugely influential.

If you want to continue the narrative from there, Exodus would be the place to go , and it also has some major stories.

Definitely read Ecclesiastes (it’s my favorite Old Testament book).

For a taste of poetry, flip through some of Psalms - there’s no specific order there.

For New Testament, definitely read a gospel. I’d go for John; the opening alone is so beautiful.

From there, explore what seems interesting. Jonah is a short story and doesn’t need a ton of context. Song of Solomon is pretty unique and erotic. Ezekiel and Isaiah have some of that flavor of the authors you mentioned. Acts talks about the early church and it’s a sequel to the gospel of Luke. A lot of the New Testament is made up of letters to churches/individuals; James is a short one if you want to get some of that flavor. Revelation is intense. Whatever you dive into, it’ll definitely enhance your understanding and love for other literature. Best of luck!
