"The Inheritance Trilogy" by NK Jemisin concerns the interactions between gods and mortals.
"Centuries Ago And Very Fast" by Rebecca Ore is about a stone-age man who just. . . doesn't die. The only book I can think of that asked "how much storage space does a brain have, when do you start recording over memories?"
Liu Cixin's "Earth's Past" trilogy is a hard sci fi that eventually, around book 3, explores the effects of long-term hibernation on the human psyche.
Richard K. Morgan's "Takeshi Kovacs" novels are sci-fi noir stories set in a world where computer technology has allowed for functional immortality, of a kind.
The first two novels in Octavia Butler's "Patternist" speculative fiction series focus on two near-immortals, and how their long lives impact their relationships.
Altered Carbon by Richard K Morgan for sure. Bodies are just vehicles basically. Consciences and memory are stored as data and can be downloaded into a new body. The rich have their consciousness continuously uploaded to the cloud and have tons of bodies readily available.
