New 52 reading order?

[babyblob]

I bit the bullet at the start of the year and started to read some New 52 stories. I read some Detective, Batman, and some Action comics. I really enjoyed them. I was wondering if anyone had a reading order of the New 52 comics. I know there are a lot of titles. I look online but the only sites I found gave books from years ago leading to the new 52 and such.

Thanks for the help :P
