Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder. Literally designed to introduce philosophy through a novel. Perfect starting point.
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Short, practical, doesn't require any prior knowledge. Stoicism is the most immediately useful philosophy for everyday life.
The Philosophy of Andy Warhol. Not traditional philosophy but a fascinating way into questions about art, value, and identity.
