The Martian Chronicles is the only short story collection I’ve read. So something like that would be great. But I’m open to other kinds of recs too.
I want books with good enough prose tho. Bad or flat prose is a turn off for me.

The Illustrated Man, also by Ray Bradbury. Welcome to the Monkey House is a great collection of Kurt Vonnegut’s shorter works, many of which are in the vein of sci-fi.
If you want to go weird with it, Harlan Ellison’s short stories are great. I’d also recommend Gene Wolfe’s The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories and Other Stories.
Didn’t know it was a short-story collection, thanks a bunch.
