I'd love to be in a reading group that can discuss the chapters and helpful related readings. Right now i am reading Primitive Mythology with the Golden Bough and Ovid Metamorphosis because he uses those books a lot for reference and they are both beautiful reads. Also I am reading World Mythology which breaks down all mythology of all different cultures and tells the stories/breaks them down. I have found that MOG is a series that needs supplemental reading to get the most understanding out of it. Creative is my favorite.(less)

Should I read this series in order? Do they tangibly build on one another in a narrative form or are they more just a collection of writings that can be grouped and sub-grouped together? Some interest me more than others at a glance.
