You should have a vague idea about why K1 and the girls interacted the way they did from reading the other arcs, especially Tatarigoroshi - though you get a rather explicit resolution soon if you can't figure it out.
With second arc you do have a solid and rather common theory, but with no motive you can essentially shove it - again, the motive is present in the arc itself.
Definitely reread Tatarigoroshi lol, R07 has a tendency of stuffing important clues in spots where you will overlook them,.
Himatsubushi gives a bit of a context to the happenings, as well as a bit of a shade on Rika: why does she know who's going to die when, as well as how? Also, who's the culprit behind those and how do they relate to Oyashiro-sama? While we're at it, what is the 'curse' that makes somebody lose go psycho in every arc? And, what's the deal with the Sonozakis and the 'demon' Mion is harboring?
If you don't have a theory for those, you're just drifting with no aim, like a boat in the middle of the ocean.

On the side, I would read two manga story arcs, one of which has a VN version already ported to PC: Onisarashi-hen, which is best read after Tsumihoroboshi, and Yoigoshi-hen, which should be read only after Meakashi and Onisarashi. You can always swap Tsumi and Mea - you'd go against the release order, but keep the answer arcs parallel to the question arcs; your choice, really.
