Does anyone have a suggestion about this?

Having received the following Ayn Rand books: "Virtue of Selfishness", "We the Living" and "The Fountainhead" as gifts, which should I read first?

And where would you list "Atlas Shrugged", assuming that is the next book to obtain?

By chance, I originally read the novels in the order in which they were written....We the Living, Fountainhead, AS. I think that was a good way to do it, as each novel is better then the one before.

I read the non fiction after that.

I'd read THE FOUNTAINHEAD first, ATLAS SHRUGGED second, and the non-fiction after. I'd skip WE THE LIVING, to be honest. It isn't one of her better ones. I can't speak for ANTHEM, haven't gotten to it yet. But I will.
