Washington Square has a pretty wallflowery protagonist. It's a classic and Henry James, but actually it's not that long (under 200 pages) or dense. I'm only halfway through so maybe at the end she busts out of her shell and becomes a stripper...we'll see.
Alberta and Jacob is a Norwegian classic, probably the most introverted protagonist I have come across. It's coming of age but not YA. The protagonist is maybe 16-19 and it covers maybe a year of her life. There is a tiny bit of romance, a very tiny bit.

Unbreak My Heart
Gorgeous
I'm not entirely sure about those anymore, since it's been a while since I read them, and my long-term memory and details don't generally play nice.
Also, maybe take a look at this topic, I'm not sure if it's exactly what you want https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
