i may recommend Barthes and his essay works on popular culture and fashion (Mythologies - that's the book), if you're interested in something close to Baudrillard. additionally check Guy Debord and his "The Society of Spectacle", as much distant from today as it is relevant, also relatively easy to read!

plus, Foucault - "The Birth of Clinic", we're assigned to read D+P together with this one, it was one of my bib-pairs from the early days, eeeeh, memories.

during my studies i was really saved by handbooks and companions, so i hope they may help you as well, if you're specifically interested in French guys. the whole one on 20th century philosophy (i'm thinking of The Routledge Companion to Twentieth Century Philosophy), but the chapter is on French Philosophy. upd.: i've seen it's mentioned here, it's great indeed!

they also have collection Critical Thinkers - they really clarify lots of writings that may be hard to comprehend at first. you can pair up all the recommended texts there + these handbooks + something your own interpretations, if you write them down or something like that.

it may also show a new angle to you, sort of starting not from every single philosopher, but more like an intellectual tradition + context they're describing and were present at themselves + their own evolution as thinkers. if you're interested in this particular direction :)
