You should start with the Thrawn Trilogy.

Thrawn Trilogy is phenomenal. Having read both the novels and the comics, I actually preferred the comics. Other classics:
Dark Empire
Crimson Empire
Shadows of the Empire
Star Wars: Legacy (takes place after all of the legends, pretty much.)

And let's not forget about the saga of Kyle Katarn, the Jedi Knight Games.

Already Read Thawn.
Although I was about 12, so Might give the comics a go, what about all this, Leia and Han's Kids stuff?
I get very lost in the legacy era, I love the Fel empire, but I gt utterly confused with what the time-lines are.

Leia and Han have 3 kids: Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin. You'll want to look at stuff around the New Republic Era, centering around the Yuuzhan Vong war and those events.

This has all novels/comics/other in chronological order. The majority of the New Republic focuses on Luke, Leia, Han, and the original crew, whereas the New Jedi Order begins the next generation.

The Legacy Era starts with major events surrounding Jacen Solo, then, after a large time gap, the Star Wars: Legacy comics begin.

I would highly advice you read the graphic novel for the Thrawn Trilogy. It really defined the Star Wars EU, and with the excellent visuals it's even more spectacular.
