Maybe start with his short stories first? idk i haven't read him but i remember this qt in HS english who was a big fan, back when I was getting into real lit through joyce and kafka
gooood times

I love Buddenbrooks, so amazing what such a young person could write...

Magic Mountain was a bit more boring, but it's comfy as hell.

Most consistently good author I can think of.
