I Love Getting Inside a Character's Mind! I Want More Books Like This!!!

I'm finding that I really really like books that are strongly in first person and that get inside a character's mind, struggles, and emotions as the story beats play out. It's something that I uniquely like in books that anime/movies/tv just can't quite do the same justice to. I want to find more books that are engaging to experience alongside the main character.

Notable books that I've read that I enjoyed for this exact reason:

Dungeon Crawler Carl Series (Currently reading, I love seeing Carl process and push through so many crazy and wild situations!)

The Hunger Games Series

Mercy Thompson Series (Patricia Briggs)

I'm Glad my Mom Died (Jeanette McCurdy)

The Fourth Wing Series

Twilight Series

There are a couple third person POV series but function well enough to feel like it's first person anyway because all it's focus is on the main character that I really like as well

Books of Bayern Series (Shannon Hale)

Leviathan Trilogy (Scott Westerfeld)

Semantic Error (Novel version)

I find I'm not all too picky when it comes to the overall genre itself, although I struggle to engage with books that are really overly flowery or dense when it comes to describing things, I tend to lean towards YA genres for that reason.

Bonus points if it's a good audiobook reading (I've been so spoiled by full cast audio from Graphic Audio and Soundbooth, I really enjoy the production value it gives). I listen to books at my work and it's how I survive my monotonous job.

Any suggestions are appreciated!
