Prompt: How the conflict drives character development (causes the character to change)
A Corner of the Universe

Read up to: 1-189 (finished)
In A Corner of the Universe, Hattie Owen's uncle comes in the summer to stay with her. During the summer, Hattie discovers that people don't give Adam a chance before they judge him. Adam has admired one of Hattie's "friends", Angel, and makes it his duty to make her happy. One day, Hattie and Adam go to the upstairs of the boarding house and see something that they weren't supposed to see. Adam was heartbroken because he thought Angel was better than what she was doing, so he stormed out and was missing for a few hours. He was found dead when the police found him.
The conflict in this story is obviously Adam's death. His death drives Hattie to be sort of rebellious and stand up to her grandmother. By standing up I mean she tells her grandmother that how she has been excluding Adam from the outside is not ok and that she needs to think about how her decision has affected him.
