To Be Taught, If Fortunate - wonderful scifi novella from Becky Chambers

A Psalm for the Wild-Built and its sequel - another killer scifi novella from Becky Chambers. honestly if you like scifi, Becky Chambers can't miss

Even Though I Knew the End - queer historical fantasy novella

Human Acts - this one isnt a novella, but it is pretty short (less than 300 pages) and is one of the most beautiful and gutwrenching books I've ever read. takes place during the student uprising in Korea in the 80s
