I would recommend reading some of the actual sutras of Buddhism. I read The Diamond Sutra, which addresses how this life is an illusion. It's a very interesting read, and it definitely has an effect on how you see things. I really enjoyed it.
I'm not quite sure what version of The Diamond Sutra that I read. They all have different translations and commentaries added on to the text, so I would recommend picking one that you like and seems most readable to you.
