I got the nand2tetris book and such and am about to start. Why would you recommend Code first over nand2tetris in your opinion?

Really really don't worry about it. One is not a precondition for the other.

"Code" is fascinating for talking about the history and the "Why", while N2T is excellent for giving you the hands-on practice at building one yourself.
