What are you lacking? I assume you're using a crop body (ie Rebel or 40D, etc), so you've got coverage from effective 28mm to 380mm as well as IS. Unless you find the IQ lacking on these, the only suggestion might be a fast prime like 50/1.8 (cheap), 50/1.4 (nicer), though these will be mild telephoto on your body. Probably a better choice is the 35/2.0:
