How can read PDFs page by page using a swipe motion?

Hi, I am new to working with PDF. I am looking for a way to swipe to advance and read through pdf pages. In other words, I have a number of pages of notes in pdf format that I would like to arrange in a certain order, and be able to rearrange as necessary, and then be able to read through (in full page view) by swiping right to left, as if reading a book.

Can anyone tell me if this is possible with acrobat, or if you might know of a different piece of software I can use to accomplish this? I didn't know where to start so writing my question here in this forum.

Incidentally, each page of my notes is its own entity, in other words, would it be easier in another format, not pdf? I just need to be able to arrange them in any order and flip through in full page on my surface pro 4. Im just using pdf so i can annotate with my stylus.

Thank you!

    If each page is a separate pdf, open each page in its own browser tab.  You can then swipe left or right to change pages.  To re-sequence pages drag & drop the tab to another location.  Acrobat does not have the re-sequence feature you want.

    --Dash! That would be perfect! But Microsoft Edge is my browser and swiping doesn't seem to work. I've looked through settings and didn't find anything about swipe. Should I use a different browser to accomplish this? Will Firefox do it?

    It would also be great if the browser could be in full screen for this, without tabs showing or the task bar at the bottom. Is this possible? Id like the page to be as large and use as much of the screen as possible.
