A character-driven novel

The 52 Book Club's 2024 Reading Challenge - hosted by the52bookclub

Novels can generally be broken down into either plot-driven or character-driven stories. For this prompt, we want the characters and their inner conflicts, personal journeys, growth, and overall character arcs to be the main focus of the book.
