I'm not sure about essential to every occult library (and I realize some of these aren't necessarily considered primarily 'occult' texts), but here are a few I've found useful:
Yes, the language of angels which Magick-folks are still using today.
Including giants like Lon Milo Duquette
Its a little complicated for me, and I don't really do "ceremonial magick" but I certainly don't dismiss it either and have great respect for many of the brilliant people who do.
Some random ideas :)

Kundalini Yoga Meditation for Prosperity II
Archangels of Magick: Rituals for Prosperity, Healing, Love, Wisdom, Divination and Success
More than anything, focus on gratitude!
While personally I'd rather see posts like that go into /r/succubae - since that sub is dedicated to the topic and welcomes such posts - I don't think it's totally out of line for it to have been posted here. God knows its better than another "have you ever really seen magic?" or "is my neighbor a satanist because he has a cat?" post.
> That being said, can anyone recommend reading material for necromancy works, negromancy and angelic magicks that isn't Enochian?
I'd recommend the Book of Oberon which isn't specifically any of those but is, IMHO, quite related to all of them.
As well as A Treatise on Angel Magic. It does cover some Enochian material, but also includes non-Enochian angel magic.
Not specifically about angel magic, but I feel related are
I always recommend to start with reading to develop an understanding before you completely dive in.
My favorite books for beginners are:
Liber Al vel Legis/Book the Law by Aleister Crowley - Book Crowley wrote in 1904 in Cairo. It contains, in my own opinion, the most supreme occult philosophy and theology.
Liber ABA/Book 4 by Aleister Crowley - Book written by Crowley that covers everything you may wish to know, from yoga to meditation to working tools to ritual to magick techniques.
The Mystical Qabalah by Dion Fortune - Arguably the most comprehensive and most easily understood on the qabalah to have ever been written.
The Book of Thoth by Aleister Crowley - Explanation of the tarot.
Circles of Power by John Michael Greer - An excellent guide to the hermetic magickal practices of the Golden Dawn.
Enochian Magick in Theory along with Enochian Magick in Practice - Great guides on one of the most popular systems of magick.
The Mystical and Magical System of the A .'. A .'. - Book on the methods of achieving enlightenment in the system utilized by the A .'. A .'.
Having owned that book I'd say the best thing you can do is throw it away. Generally anything written by that author is plagued with errors. http://www.amazon.com/Enochian-Magic-Beginners-Original-Llewellyns/dp/1567187471 or http://www.amazon.com/Enochian-Evocation-Dr-John-Dee/dp/1578634539 are better ones.. also http://www.amazon.com/The-Complete-Enochian-Dictionary-Language/dp/1578632544
I don't know how much this will really help, but if you really want to try angel invocation for this, Damon Brand's Archangels of Magick is probably your simplest option.
Alternatively, many people get great cognitive benefits from eating a ketogenic diet.
In this book (http://www.amazon.com/Nature-Spirits-And-What-They/dp/086315462X) or possibly in one of the other two books by the same authors the "nature" spirits claim that they are making this noise as a means of reaching out to humanity. We human beings, with our thinky thinking thinkiness, have broken the bridge to the spiritual world and this causes great sadness and pain in the spirit world, which include the world of the elementals. The elementals do not want it to be this way but everyone thinks too materialistically or way to ungrounded (new age movement) to actually be able to connect or contact with the beings of other worlds...in this case the world of the elementals. Only certain people can hear it and that is because those are the people who are having enough spiritual thoughts to be able to "go beyond" for lack of a better term...this is not anti-science this is science with value added...with the consideration that this is not the only dimension that has sentient beings in it. I wouldn't comment on this (especially on reddit!) if I didn's stand firmly behind this way of thinking...if you have the means I highly recommend one or all of those books.

Here you go.
There are three books I use to connect with angels. It shows all of their sigils and info. Here's the three I have right now that I really like:

I disagree with the other reply - a fantastic book on Enochian is Enochian Vision Magick by DuQuette. For the runes, if you're taking a traditional approach, I recommend Thorsson's Futhark though it's certainly not everyone's cup of tea.
As for learning to write in another language - practice, practice, practice! The biggest help will probably be concentrating on learning one language, don't try to confuse yourself with too many at once. Once you've chosen one, just write out anything you can think of in that language. For me, just an hour a day of sitting down and writing things out, not even trying to translate it back to english, is the best way of learning. After two weeks or so, you'll be great at writing and re-translating, just because the letters are so ingrained in your head. My friends and I used to use Tolkien's Elvish alphabet as a secret code in high school, and I can still write in it to this day, seven or eight years later!
archangels of magick and the 72 angels of magick by damon brand. they're really easy and work well!
This is very concise - http://www.amazon.com/Enochian-Magic-Theory-Frater-Yechidah/dp/1908705035/
yes, man I completely agree with you.
For those who want to go deep into this see http://www.amazon.com/Paths-Light-Darkness-Highest-Mountain/dp/1932890009/ Section 3 and http://www.amazon.com/Fallen-Angels-Among-Us-What/dp/1932890556/
Well to learn Enochian the only book on the topic that is worth it's salt is The Complete Enochian Dictionary which is one of the most complete books on the topic.
Theban is at this point basically a replacement code, so you don't really need a book you need a chart, of which there is one in Lady Sheba's Book of Shadows and probably all over the internet.
Runes are another matter. There are tons of books on the subject, the language you would use to write the script is probably ancient Icelandic or ancient German or something like that. There is a series of articles called "Rune of the Month" where the author gets into the use of the runes magically and linguistically. He also has a really full bibliography in his introductory article. It might be best to start with his series and then move onto the material listed in his bibliography. You can find him here: http://home.earthlink.net/~jordsvin/Runes/Rune%20Of%20The%20Month/Index.htm
Yes, particularly in Griffith Park and around Hollywood Forever Cemetery, but Papa Legba rules there. That's who the blues songs are actually about. However, I wouldn't contact him unless you do your homework. I love Legba, but he can be dangerous if you cross him and he won't tolerate your pity party. I'm saying that out of compassion. You don't want to go off half cocked and make things worse. A better solution for getting exactly what you're asking for is a book called Angels of Love. Do each ritual and follow the instructions. If you can manage that you will become a better person who is more receptive to love (the best version of yourself) and soon you will be blessed with friendships and a soul mate. Also, maybe see a therapist.
Anyway, here's the link: The Angels of Love: Magic Rituals to Heal Hearts, Increase Passion and Find Your Soulmate https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019198T3K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_N4q-Ab708N51J
You use the Great Table: from the appropriate quadrant and sub quadrant, you get the Greater Name of God, the Lesser Name of God, the name of the Ruling Archangel, and optionally the name of the appropriate Angel, and you invoke in that hierarchical order.
The books by Aaron Leitch and Dean Wilson give the method in detail.

This is one of the best god damn series ever written.
On marriage and sex as related to Christianity, I can suggest this work: https://swedenborg.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/swedenborg_foundation_conjugial_love.pdf
I published it as an ebook here: https://www.amazon.com/Angelic-concerning-Marriage-Hyperlinked-Swedenborg-ebook/dp/B008GP1262
Besides this, it sounds like your experience as a child has shaped how you feel now, engendering a negative reaction with men. I would perhaps address that first before entering any serious relationship. Talking it over and letting it go would be the first step, otherwise it will continually affect you.

I have a library full of books on mythology from all over the world. If you ever come up with specific questions you can message me and I'll pull from my resources. This book is a good starter but I own a lot of out of print books.

However I don't agree that Enochian is a good starting point. Do the LBRP for several months and then when the ritual is complete try conversing with the archangels around you for help in understanding and working with the elements, questions you may have, guidance, etc. It may not come in a direct spoken way but may appear as inspirations when you least expect it. When you have gotten that down skry the tattvas and see how that goes. I then suggest either the Olympic Planetary spirits or the archangels of the spheres. From there you should be in a great place for any evocationary magic.
I'd been following him for a while but had overlooked the bulk of his content initially due to the way he markets himself, selling courses online that seem vague and suspect. Apparently I was mistaken. I don't necessarily agree with everything he says, portraying his own biased subjective experience as definitive (as does nearly every other Magus, objectively), but he does seem to be reasonably adept and knowledgeable of Enochian magic, among other types, and worth giving a listen. I'm considering buying a copy of his book, as well, lauded to be a comprehensive overview of Enochian magic. By the way, this is the book he recommend in a recent AMA as being one of the more in depth on practical Enochian magic, for those wishing to delve into it, by one of my personal favorite contemporary (and living) occult authors as it were: Enochian Vision Magick: An Introduction and Practical Guide to the Magick of Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley by Lon Milo Duquette (PDF)
How about the fairy bible?
Or maybe Good Faeries/Bad Faeries?
Also this book:

I have heard of similar accounts when people are "near death", but not all day every day.
