Welcome to the gang!
Everyone seems to have a different view on the "best" order and I'm sure someone will be along shortly to post an overcomplicated flowchart. But honestly, there's no harm in just reading them in order. The quality ramps up as they go and also you'll see the characters and the world itself grow and change over time, plus you'll get all the references to things that came prior!*
If you do read one and decide you NEED to find out more about the characters in it immediately you can always do that, but for now, eh.
* WARNING: Even after reading the entire series 100 times you will still not get ALL the references. This is normal.
Ooh thanks! Tbh I wouldn't be opposed to getting a full blown flowchart lol. Also looking for all the references is great, it's satisfying to find connections that change the way u see things so I'm excited for that :))
On your own head be it :D
Wow ummm well....
Think I might stick to chronological order, at least for the first time.. That's a lot
It'll all make sense eventually lol, I promise
