I have not read Mark Levine's book, but if you're just looking for another read, I would recommend "Modalogy" by Jeff Brent. I just got it and it's been so much fun to study. You'll go in depths on modes, variations of modes, scales, and learn the "why" behind why they behave the way they do and a ton of other stuff.

The book Modalogy identifies the most important traits of a modal cadential chord as stepwise motion of the root, a major quality, and presence of the mode’s characteristic note.
For example, it gives II-I as the strongest Lydian cadence, since II’s root is a step away from I, it has a major quality, and it contains the characteristic note of the mode (the raised fourth).
