Honestly, for me it was metamorphosis. Metamorphosis is a short story made by Kafka. It really showed how if a person is useless then people just discard them. How the family of the mc just threw him out because he couldn’t work or provided. It was so true that people would actually do that, even your family members that it made me cry.

War and Peace really struck a chord with me, especially Pierre and Andrei. Something about how they go through what would be a full character arc in another book, and then... keep living, and growing, and changing. Pierre tries a bunch of stuff in finding happiness in life, some of it sticks, some doesn't, but the way both of them keep persevering got me really hard.
