My absolute all-time-favourite, Antigone never leaves my side. it was a love at first sight. 
I love her quite love for Hemon, her determination, how Anouilh talks about theatre and about people having roles to fulfill and things  to do and things to say. I love that nobody is wrong, yet they can't be saved. I find this book heart-wrenching, but also deeply inspiring when I face a hard choice.
