As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner
5.0

This book caused me so much anxiety and actual chest pains when I was reading it, and I actually had shortness of breath when I finished it. Despite how I felt, this book was so powerful, and made me feel something for the characters that I haven’t felt in a long time. I hated some of them and cried for others. This was my first book of Faulkner’s, but I’ll definitely be reading more.
