Good Place to Start With Ursula K. LeGuin? (lemm.ee)

I've been seeing her name a lot lately in terms of good science fiction and fantasy. I feel like I've lost so much attention span in terms of my ability to read and stuff and I'd like to start getting back into it, perhaps starting with her (or Terry Pratchett lol).

If I start with her, what's a good place to start with her work?

You can honestly go many ways. I’d recommend Wizard of Earthsea or Left Hand of Darkness depending on if you want fantasy or Sci-Fi. The Word for World is Forest is also great. Her short stories like Those Who Walk Away From Omelas are quick and thought provoking too.
