I bought a book almost 2 years ago called The Stone Reader: Modern Philosophy in 133 Arguments, which had an article by Peter Singer, "Should This Be the Last Generation?" The piece mentioned Schopenhauer and Benatar, so I looked into both philosophers further, and I've been interested in antinatalism ever since!

I have a few suggestions.

The Philosophy Gym has 25 short philosophy things, with pictures and dialogues. Stephen Law also has a lot of other books of similar style that might be worth looking into.

Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar is a philosophy joke book, which might be a fun coffee table book.

The Philosophy Bites book has 25 interviews with leading contemporary philosophers.

The Stone Reader has articles by leading contemporary philosophers that were published in the New York Times philosophy column, The Stone.

Hope that helps!

You might enjoy The Stone Reader, which is an anthology of essays based on the New York Time's op/ed series written by professional philosophers ("The Stone"). The essays are pretty variable in terms of quality, but they're all aimed at popular audiences, and some of them are really quite good.
