Asalaamu alikum Carol,
I have this book you mentioned, although I have not yet read it.
The advice sis. Muslimah gave is good for all of us, weather new Muslims or old. I think it's a great habit (the best habit actually) to get into reading a bit of the Quran each night and reflecting on it seriously. In addition to this, I think it's also a nice idea to read books on various Islamic topics that will help improve your understanding of Islam, especially when you are new.
For example, the Quran has much mention of the Jinn, but if you do not understand what are the Jinn, it will not mean as much to you as it would if you understand the concept of what the Jinn are.
The same author also has a very good Tawheed book available that I think would also be beneficial to you while reading Quran.
May Allah bless you and guide you, and make the way easy for you and all Muslims everywhere. Ameen.
