I reread "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson over the summer. It has a core idea about memetics that is very interesting, and it was much more fun than I remembered. I was only 19 when I read it the first time, and a lot of the satire was lost to my inexperience of the world in general and the US in particular.
It's a great read that still holds up today. I'd love to do a book club discussion around it.
