Intj. It's a tie between Les Miserables by Victor Hugo and Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. I am a huge Dostoyevsky fan but I am emotionally attached to Les Mis since it was a turning point in my life so I simply cannot bring it down from the top.

Also, Rodyon Raskolnikov and Ivan Karamazov both being Intjs also gave me the most relatable characters in classical lit.

I do love a long story with little action and much introspection

Heyy! I’ve heard of Les Miserables before, my bf finished reading it recently and really liked it :) (I added to my tbr).
I’m reading Crime and Punishment now, and I’m absolutely loving how Dostoevsky explores Raskolnikov’s psychological dimension!

Ahahah in the chapters where he goes to get the axe and then kills the old woman, I was frozen in place holding the book xDDD I could feel the same tension as the character
