What is a good inspirational book for a book club?

My friend and I are starting a book club. The first book we want to read has to be inspirational in some way, whether that be finding yourself, moving past obstacles, things like that. We do NOT want a classic or teenage book.What is a good inspirational book for a book club?

I'm going to recommend a teen book (sorry i'm not listening to you :P), but it is NOT your classic teen book. It is called the Boy in the Striped Pajamas, and I'm pretty sure you've heard of it at some point. It's about the Holocaust and a nine-year-old boy called Bruno. It's really sad, but there are a lot of themes that will keep you talking for weeks after you finish reading it. You should check it out.
