I'm interested in learning about Tibetan Buddhism. What are some good places to start with?

Go to a buddhist forum, this thread will descend into madness after the next bump.

i bought most of these books and skimmed them, it put me off tibetan buddhism in the end.

Start with pic related. Where you go from there depends on which school of Tibetan Buddhism you are interested in, as each have their own philosophies and texts.

Start with the 'Jeets. The Tibetans do.

my advice if you're interested in practicing: start with a basic foundation in buddhist fundamentals, breathing meditation, insight meditation, etc. vajrayana is the third vehicle, the esoteric vehicle. it's something you move up to along the path.
