 Thank you everyone, I have added a quite of these to my to read list. I have read Finding aubrey and enjoyed it, and I would be fool to say I didn't enjoyed gatsby although I had some difficulty with the language at the begining, never thought of nick as the typical introvert. Maybe I should be a bit more specific in my book quest, I am looking for where the maincharacter either is an introvert who is opening up learning to come out and socialise you know a loner learning to socialise and find friends or simply a introvert falling in love.

     You might like Prep (introvert girl at a boarding school) or Penelope (introvert girl starting university).

     I think Seraphina sounds close to what you need. The protagonist is an introvert who ends up doing quite a bit of talking, and acknowledges her difficulty in maintaining friendships and somewhat poor social skills. However, the discussion typically has more focus on the mystery at hand than it does about her learning to socialize. She does find friend (s) and/or fall in love.

      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.
    
  
  
   These are told from a male POV but otherwise fit your criteria (main character an introvert, and a little romance):

     Just Listen
      Just ListenI read it a while ago but I remember the MC was very alone and kept to herself. It's the first book that came to mind. I hope it fits your criteria!
 Oh Just listen definitely fits the criteria, I have read and remember that I really liked it. Thank you Karen for mentioning it, maybe I will reread it.

     I have been meaning to read the curious incident of the dog in the nighttime for a long time, have heard so much good about it. Thank you Kristin Thompson for reminding me!

     How to disappear by Sharon Huss Roat is really good and sounds like what you are looking for - it's YA

 Trust is third book in series. All good, but h in others are mildly shy & in-your-face personalities.

I would prefer if the protagonist was a female and like a tiny bit of romance wouldn´t hurt but I am open to all suggestions!
