Seeking Guidance for Quran Study as a Newcomer to Islam

Assalamu alaikum! I’ve been wanting to learn more about Islam for a while now, inspired by historical figures and the struggles of our Palestinian brothers and sisters. But honestly, what finally pushed me to buy a Quran was a moment of frustration. I was at a bookstore the other day, browsing the religion section. Almost everything was focused on Christianity, with just a tiny space for other faiths. Even the books about Islam included titles like 'Biblical responses to Islamic claims' and guides on converting Muslims, with pamphlets literally covering the actual Islamic books! That’s when I decided, enough-I’m getting a Quran and diving in. I picked up a translation by M.A.S. Abdel Haleem (not sure if that’s the best one, but it’s what I found), and it’s sitting on my bed now. Before I start, I’d love some advice on the best way to study and any additional resources that could help a beginner like me. JazakAllah khair!
