When I was a protestant, I read Eastern Orthodoxy Through Western Eyes by Donald Fairbairn. He is a protestant, but I think he gives a fair view of protestants and Orthodox. He also gives a suggestion of books to read about Orthodoxy by Orthodox authors at the end of his book. When you are ready to read books by Orthodox, you may want to try Introducing the Orthodox Church: Its Faith and Life by Anthony Coniaris, which I have not read. Two that I have are The Orthodox Church and the Orthodox Way by Kallistos Ware. His writing is clear and concise. You may find the Orthodox Study Bible helpful. Its notes will help you learn how the Orthodox view Scripture. Even though your parents are not Christian, try to keep good relations with them. When you go to Liturgy, after awhile your actions may be a testimony to them.
