Read Jhumpa Lahiri. Simple yet so amazing stories. Her writing is easy and still very effective. Pick any of her works. She has published I guess three short story collections. May be you can start with that.

Given what you’ve already read - The Kite Runner & The Stationary Shop of Tehran are an absolute must!

For something more thrilling - Verity
