Eh I know Griffiths is shit but op should probably start with his book over shankar.

Why so so many people hate Griffiths? I used his books for qm and em in undergrad and thought they were OK.

People here shit on it because it's lower-level than most QM texts.

Griffiths is a fine book, and Griffiths -> Shankar is a fine progression if you are too inexperienced to handle working through Shankar

his QM book was easy af and ignored a lot of the deeper math compared to one i took in my engineering program at grad school, which is saying something

Griffiths - Introduction to Quantum Mechanics

Shankar - Principles of Quantum Mechanics

Sakurai - Modern Quantum Mechanics

You could get away with skipping everyother book
