Remember that there are compilation omnibus editions! The early ones are often bundled into threes or fours. So your reading order might physically be 'Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter: The First Three Novels' or something like that. Check the contents page of those big volumes to make sure you're not accidentally skipping something. It can be a more economical way to start the journey.

It's okay to not finish. Seriously. Start at the beginning. If you stop enjoying them, stop reading. Life's too short for books that don't bring you joy, even if they're part of a famous series. Your 'complete' order is however many books you loved. There's no test at the end.

Goodreads lists can be user-generated and sometimes out of order. Double-check against a more official source if you're using a fan-made list. I've seen lists that accidentally omit a novella or place a later book earlier. Cross-referencing with Wikipedia or the publisher's site saves a lot of confusion down the line.

For a straightforward list, most online booksellers like Amazon have the series listed in order on the main novel's product page. Scroll down to 'series information' and it'll usually show you 'Book 1 of 28' or whatever the current count is. It's a quick, no-nonsense way to get the sequence without diving into fan wikis. Useful for one-click buying, I suppose.

Honestly, I envy anyone starting fresh. The publication order is the only order that makes sense to me. Each book builds on events and emotional fallout from the previous one, even when the plots are standalone. Skipping around would ruin character relationship arcs, especially the messy, long-term ones with Jean-Claude and Richard. You need to experience the frustration and growth in real time.
The sheer number of love interests and allies gets confusing. Reading in order is the only way to keep 'Nathaniel's' story separate from 'Damian's' and 'Asher's' drama. Hamilton has a habit of introducing a character briefly, then bringing them back dozens of books later as pivotal. Publication order is your memory's best friend.
The best resource is the Anita Blake wiki. They have a comprehensive chronological timeline that includes every short story, every novel, and even the bits from the 'Meredith Gentry' books. It's incredibly detailed. That said, using it for a first read is like using an architect's blueprint to walk through a house for the first time. You'll know where every pipe is, but you'll miss the experience of just living in the rooms. Save the wiki for your second pass, when you're trying to untangle the deeper lore.
If you're coming from the urban fantasy genre expecting something like early Dresden or 'October Daye', be warned: the genre shifts. So the 'correct' order might depend on your taste. Love hard-boiled detective stuff with monsters? Books 1-9. Love dense polyamorous relationship negotiations with occasional action? Books 10-24. You could almost view them as two series set in the same world. Knowing that might help you decide how deep to go before the order becomes irrelevant to your enjoyment.
