Where to start with The Dresden Files? (lemm.ee)

Given the name of the leader of this community, I figured I’d throw this out there:

I’ve never read any of Jim Butcher’s books, and have heard good things about The Dresden Files.

Where do I start? Is there a good website to show a suggested reading order, etc?

The first book, Storm Front, is awful. Apparently he wrote it as part of a college project? I've been told the series gets better as it goes along, but I was never able to get past the first book.

Yeah, I tried reading it to see what all of the fuss was about and I couldn't get through it.
