Looking for a good character-driven novel

I’m looking for something different thats not always recommended. Recent ones I’ve really enjoyed…
Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow
The Poisonwood Bible
The Goldfinch
Middlesex

Please don’t suggest…
Project Hail Mary (read it…meh)
Lonesome Dove (read it…👍👍)
East of Eden (read it…👍👍)
Pillars of the Earth (read it…meh)
Count of Monte Cristo (on my read list but don’t wanna read it yet)

Thanks for your suggestions?
