READING ORDER
Some readers want healing first. Some want philosophy. Some want a laugh. Some would rather meet the ideas inside a story. These paths are recommendations, not commandments.
ONE RULE
You are not behind if you skip a book, change paths, start with fiction, or move between series. The point is not completion. The point is useful encounter.
