Welcome to the club, jaliqai!
If you're aiming for Reanimator, you have a pretty solid base. For specific card suggestions, the main upgrade I see are for speed and efficiency. I suggest filling out the playset of Otherworldly Gazes, which let you dig deeper and faster than Dreams of Laguna. Think Twice isn't especially efficient here, so I would replace that with something else that lets you discard a big creature that's stuck in your hand, like Chart a Course or Macabre Waltz. Six reanimate cards is on the low side, so consider a couple more of those. And finally, Sephiroth's Intervention and Refute are pretty slow as removal/control. Look for more lower-cost options that do one thing well, instead of doing two things kind of okay.
But I can see the shape of this deck, and it looks pretty good. Above all, have fun!

Okay, I have a guilty story that I have to share about this. I was playing pioneer against an Izzet Phoenix deck. They had an Arcane Bombardment with a Refute under it, so they could counter whatever I played. Why they were playing those cards in Izzet Phoenix, I don’t know. Anyway, they had an awoken horror and an activatibal Hall of Storm Giants (which I don’t know why they were playing either). I was at 15 life. They were at 7. I had a tapped hall on top of my other lands, clearly visible. I said “That Dismal Backwater I played earlier came in clutch], since I’m at 1.” They were briefly confused, then swung in with both the hall and the horror. I was able to win by animating my hall on my turn for the win. A “pen trick” variation , I still feel kind of bad about it today.
