Hard to pick just one, but I think I'm going to choose Naomi Kritzer's short-story collection Cat Pictures Please. What I said on Goodreads was: Short stories, mostly near-future settings, hopeful but not cloying. It's rare for me to open a short story collection and finish every story in the book, but I really liked this collection; it's comforting to read stories that acknowledge real suffering without falling into self-indulgent nihilism.
