Read Gone with the Wind and loved how spoiled and selfish Scarlett was. Suggest me other books with selfish and/or narcissistic main characters! (Not side characters; I know there are plenty of examples of those!) by orangepeel6 Related: Non-fantasy/scifi fiction novel with a main character who is crafting, building, tinkering a lot e.g. a kid during summer vacation building treehouses, gadgets in his freetime. I’m looking for something that a teenage boy who is into videogames would love to read. Recommendation needed – something like The Ploughmen Suggest me a book which entirely changed your perspective on life Our Wives Under the Sea Looking for erotica books with yoga instructor and therapist themes?

aylonitkosem on October 25, 2025 8:29 pm A couple Discworld novels come to mind: The Wee Free Men: Main char goes to rescue her brother not because she particularly loves him but because he’s “mine” Going Postal: A con man is saved fron execution by the city’s ruler and is forced instead to run the city’s failed post office.
