http://libcom.org/library/philosophy-further-reading-guide Here's a list for the rest of your lifetime. Personally, i found History and class conscoiusness (can be found for free on marxists.org) a good read.

I recommend "An Anthology of Western Marxism: From Lukacs and Gramsci to Socialist-feminism" It gives a good broad overview.

Mikhail Lifshitz wrote a book on Marx's philosophy of art, which makes a very direct connection between his early aspirations as a poet to his first major writings on philosophy, such as his dissertation on Epicurus, and goes on to show how these remained as central principles in his writings on capital and labor.

Reason in Revolt: Marxist Philosophy and Modern Science (http://www.marxist.com/rircontents.htm)

That link is the entire book online, but if you prefer a hard copy you can order it there too. Amazing book that explains Dialectical Materialism better than anything else I've read and shows how revolutionary leaps are a part of all processes, even in nature.
