I reallllyyyyy enjoy character driven novels!! Ive been reading a lot of Sally Rooney, so maybe something along those lines? All suggestions are welcome!
If you’re open to very long books, I recommend [The Hands of the Emperor](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/af2bba9c-8f41-4a3e-b87a-8532a44ccb67) by Victoria Goddard! It’s a beautifully written slice of life book about the personal secretary to the emperor of the world, with a heavy focus on platonic relationships.

The Guest by Emma Cline is pretty much all vibes … but not necessarily happy ones. It felt a bit like a fever dream of a book.
i HATED the fuck out of this book when i first read it by hard copy, but when they released the re-recorded audiobook (faber & faber version), i fell in love with it.
this book is so fucking weird and these girls ain’t right. the ending shocked me.

It’s been a while since I last read it but, I think, *Plainsong* might fit the bill.
