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.

    Story of your life is what Arrival was based on. I think there should be a caveat that many of these stories are pretty hard sci-fi. As in going in depth with the science/math as well as theorietic science/math. I enjoy the genre a lot and casually familiar with the concepts from documentaries and stuff so I’m not especially confused by it… but struggled with this one.
