I recently listened to the audiobook of Remarkably Bright Creatures and I'm looking for some other books about octopuses and/or intelligent marine life. I picked up Remarkably Bright Creatures because I loved the sassy, clever commentary from the octopus's POV when I listened to the preview, but as the book went on I felt like there wasn't nearly enough octopus for my liking! Don't get me wrong, I liked the book well-enough, I just didn't realize that the book focused more heavily on (human) family and grief than the perspective of an octopus observing humans.
Does anyone have any book recommendations that focus more heavily on octopuses or other intelligent marine life? Maybe whales? I typically go for sci-fi/fantasy, but I'm open to other genres, as well. I'm also open to non-fiction, as long as it's not overly dry or slow-paced. If it takes place from the POV of the octopus, that's a plus, but not necessary.

It’s nonfiction, but the soul of an octopus was quite good
Moby Dick includes a smart but malicious whale
