It's not really about reading MORE. It's about UNDERSTANDING what you have read. Try to take notes during uworld, and don't move to the next question until you have understood the concept behind it. People waste a lot of time reading numerous books instead of solving more questions. Step 1 is quite tough. And i believe finishing uworld on a 51% won't cut it. So maybe you should take a 24 hr break, try and calm yourself down. Think of where you are going wrong (you are the best judge of that) and then have a new plan. Take notes during uworld, and for things that are so hard to understand, search for videos on youtube. Cheers
