Have you read the Unwind series by Neal Shusterman? (the same author as Scythe)
Battle Royale by Koushun Takami
Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins
Nevermoor by Jessica Townsend
You should check out Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi. It’s the first book in the Legacy of Orïsha series. It’s a YA fantasy inspired by Nigerian mythology.
>Zélie Adebola remembers when the soil of Orïsha hummed with magic. Burners ignited flames, Tiders beckoned waves, and Zélie’s Reaper mother summoned forth souls.
>But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, maji were killed, leaving Zélie without a mother and her people without hope.
>Now Zélie has one chance to bring back magic and strike against the monarchy. With the help of a rogue princess, Zélie must outwit and outrun the crown prince, who is hell-bent on eradicating magic for good.
>Danger lurks in Orïsha, where snow leoponaires prowl and vengeful spirits wait in the waters. Yet the greatest danger may be Zélie herself as she struggles to control her powers and her growing feelings for an enemy.
Have you tried the Mortal Engines series by Philip Reeve? I really enjoyed the main 4, there’s a prequel trilogy that’s good, but not quite as good as the originals.
I’m sure you’ve read the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books. However, his other series. The Kane Chronicles trilogy is so underrated.
