Snow Crash, although it's been 15 years. I miss reading.

Came here for this. Also The Diamond Age.

Blindsight is great as well, and free.

I also had a long bout of not reading, but it just took me a few days to snap back into it. If you don't have time to read like you used to (but want to go back to reading regularly), commit to reading on public transport, or anywhere else where you would normally be on your phone. At least that what's worked for me.

I will definitely check out Snow Crash at some point.

My 2nd favorite Stephenson (sp?) book, after Cryptonomicon.

Yeah that one is boss as well. I remember that all of the sudden you get to page 700 and there's a freaking drawing out of nowhere.
