Sure. 'The Veldt' by Ray Bradbury. It's a short but powerful story about a family living in a high - tech house. The children's virtual reality room, the veldt, becomes a source of horror as it reflects their darker desires.
Another one is 'Flowers for Algernon' by Daniel Keyes. While it can be considered science fiction due to its scientific experiment on intelligence, it's a short but deeply moving story about a man's transformation in intelligence and his subsequent experiences.
One interesting extremely short fiction book is 'A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings' by Gabriel García Márquez. This magical realist story is short but filled with rich symbolism and strange, wonderful elements. Also, 'The Yellow Wallpaper' by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a short but powerful exploration of a woman's mental state.
Sure. One of the notable ones could be 'Ninefox Gambit' by Yoon Ha Lee. It has a unique military - sci - fi setting with complex world - building.

Sure. 'Interstellar Mysteries 2024' could be a great pick. It might be full of mind - boggling puzzles set in a far - flung interstellar setting. Another one could be 'The Nano - Tech Revolution' which will likely explore the implications of advanced nanotechnology in a science - fiction world.
