Sure. Here are some books off the top of my head:

These two were on the 2022 booker long list

Small Things Like These, by Claire Keegan

Trust, by Hernan Diaz

This was a stunning debut in the Historical Fiction genra

Black Cake, by Charmaine Wilkerson

Here's a science fiction book that was unusually character driven

Sea of Tranquility, by Emily St John Mandel

Then there's this, which is pretty much all character development

A Gentleman in Moscow, Amor Towles
