That's a great book. And yes, you could classify it as inspirational; teaches that you dont know what you are capable of until you try/ succeed, and to not give up, not matter how bad things get. I'm sure you can pick out more lesson's from that book.
Back to the Moon by Homer H. Hickam, Jr. Scientist hijacks the space shuttle so he can go to the moon, but he has an unexpected passenger.
The Things They Carried by Time O'Brien. A collection of Vietnam stories.
Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller (yes, it's technically a play, but it's still a great read). An old salesmen who wont let the past go, struggles to live on as his life crumbles around him, and he can't accept it.
