New to collecting, have some questions from a newbie!

Hey so I'm somewhat new to collecting. I started buying just to read but now I'm enjoying collecting as well. So here are my questions 1-how should I store them to keep them looking good(should I stack them or stand them?)

2- how can I read them without damaging the exterior?

3-based on what you see which Mangas would you suggest i start?

4-how is my collection? (Obviously it's small compared to others on this sub)

5- How do you guys indicate that you haven't read past a certain volume? (I pull them forward alittle)

6- is it bad if they lean on other books due to there not being enough room/not filled enough?

Thank you for any comments/input.
