You shouldn't start with something like A History Of Western Philosophy, or really anything voluminous imo.

What are the concepts you like? Search which philosophers did notable work on that subject. Politics? Aristotle or Spinoza or Hayek.

The thing about philosophy is, once you dive in you'll likely get into a reading cycle. You read something, a thought from it sticks in your mind, you look up something related to it, find a new book/philosopher, then do the same with his stuff.

If you want a concise, beginner-friendly "birds eye view" of Philosophy I recommend Stephen Law's "Philosophy" from DKs "Eyewitness Companions" series.
