Raymond Carver and Lucia Berlin have some great short stories, easier to read than Joyce's Dubliners as well. Berlin's a personal all-time favourite.

Consider reading something fun too – nothing wrong with reading thrillers or fantasy if you're trying to work that reading muscle.
Fatherland by Robert Harris and The Spy Who Came In From The Cold by Le Carre are super fun thrillers that aren't completely braindead.
