"Faith Versus Fact: Why Science and Religion Are Incompatible" by Jerry Coyne is pretty good, I think that is my favorite "atheist" book.
But there is only certain amount of atheist books you can read since they kind of become repetitive when all of them cover and debunk theist claims.
Also my favorite book is "I Asimov" which is not directly an atheist book, per say, but rather a funny autobiography of a rational man and his brush with irrational people.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
