How does one start in paganism? (hexbear.net)

My partner is currently practicing paganism and I would like to start. I want to surprise her so I'm looking for advice from my fellow hexbears on where/how to start. What books should I read? What videos (if any) should I watch? What kind of people should I avoid because I heard that there are a lot of people who base their practice in ahistorical "facts".

I highly recommend anything that Raven Kaldera wrote. He is an amazing resource for anything paganism. https://ravenkaldera.org/six-ways/

Ronald Hutton's books (esp. Triumph of the Moon) are good if you wanna avoid ahistoricalness
