I would put a caveat on starting with The Hobbit, it might be too childish for some adult readers. It's a fantastic children's book but a new reader might come to it with the wrong expectations.

There's also the Nature of Middle Earth which is Tolkien's notes on the metaphysics of the world and a load of extra trivia not published in History of Middle Earth. There's going to be a book that collects the writings on the second age but it'll just reprint previously published stuff.

There's a chart floating around that I think is good, someone should post it. It goes like this:
Step 1: The Hobbit
Step 2: Lord of the Rings
Step 3: The Silmarillion
Step 4: more autism
