Did I do good? Went to Barnes and Noble and was impressed with their philosophy section.

Seneca - letters from a stoic (I loved meditations so I thought this was the next step)
Satre - existentialism is a humanism (introduction to existentialism I think)
Arthur Schopenhauer - essays and aphorisms (my favorite philosopher after reading a small introduction to him so I thought I would enjoy his work)
Albert Camus - lyrical and essays (maybe my favorite philosopher behind Schopenhauer)

Then some comedy book about philosophers sucking at love and how miserable their love life's were.

Literally every Barnes and Noble I've been to, their philosophy section has been: those shite pop philosophy books, Kant, Kierkegaard, Plato, Nietzche and Ayn Rand.

You must live near a college campus or something.

Violence has been so far the best Zizek I've read aside from perhaps, Demanding the Impossible. It's his most accessible book.

It is definitely his "best" in a way. It combines a lot of what is actually important in his politics with still being one of his lighter, more fun books. It won't give you his Lacanian or Hegelian theory in full, though.
