Going to try and post books that are related, but not actually "atheist".
Cosmos by Carl Sagan
Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
The first one for obvious reasons. Sagan is the secular Jesus, and I'd say the second is an interesting read for anyone religious or otherwise, but I feel like it would be better received if you don't actually believe in Christianity. It's a great read though
I'm actually more interested in reading the Christian books, since I've read pretty much all of the popular atheist literature:
Orthodoxy
Mere Christianity
But of course there's good atheist literature too:
HPMOR and others that I'll think of and post later I suppose.
God is Not Great. Getting it out there, I think it's probably one of the more inevitable ones.
Losing Faith in Faith and Godless each by Dan Barker.
Breaking the Spell: Religion as a Natural Phenomenon by Daniel Dennett.
First ones that come to mind. I think a few theologians may be worth reading as well. Not sure what ones though. If Kent Hovind wrote a book, we could keep a facepalm count.
I'm currently reading More Than a Carpenter because it was recommended to me by a door-to-door proselytizer. As people who are most often on the defensive, I think being better informed on where the other side is coming from would provide the most benefit.
I expected someone to have put this up already The Moral Landscape
It's a really interesting read that, IMO successfully, debunks Hume's is/ought distinction and Gould's non overlapping magisterium idea. It also makes a good case for an objective morality and argues against moral relativism.
Hero with a Thousand Faces (Credit goes to an /r/atheism subscriber unbeknownst to him.)
Can be found very cheap on Amazon (I think I saw less than two dollars).
It's often referenced when discussing the Christian "hero" Jesus, and I think it'd be an impressive addition to any knowledgeable man's library.
