Looking for striking books (lemmy.zip)

I'm just in a bad reading slump currently and trying to get out of it. Usually when this happens I would take a break then read something again but this time I feel like I don't need a break from reading, I simply need a book so striking that it will fully engross me. Looking forward to your suggestions!

I present to you a pirate adventure! The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi. The characters and world are so well developed and there’s lots of action.

Also the second book came out very recently so if you love it you can move on to the next right away. I’m currently reading the second in the series and it’s just as good. 🌊🏴‍☠️
