... goal-driven adventure and daring missions?

Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld

If you loved following Finley Jayne and her friends as they embarked on dangerous missions in The Girl in the Steel Corset, you'll be swept up by the pulse-pounding journey of Deryn and Alek aboard the living airship Leviathan as they navigate war-torn Europe on a mission that could change the fate of nations.

... a quirky ensemble of heroes with unique abilities?

Etiquette & Espionage by Gail Carriger

If you enjoyed the camaraderie and interplay between Finley, Griffin, Emily, and the rest of the crew, you'll adore the lively and diverse cast of students at Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality, where Sophronia and her classmates use their very different skills to solve mysteries and outwit villains.

... strong female protagonists navigating danger and intrigue?

Sorcery & Cecelia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer

If you appreciated Finley's strength and resilience as she grappled with her powers and identity, you’ll find much to admire in the witty, resourceful heroines Kate and Cecelia as they uncover magical plots and face peril with determination and cleverness in Regency England.

... immersive steampunk worldbuilding?

Boneshaker by Cherie Priest

If you were fascinated by the alternate Victorian London and its clockwork marvels in The Girl in the Steel Corset, you'll be equally enthralled by the richly imagined, steam-powered Seattle of Boneshaker, filled with mechanical inventions, airships, and a city haunted by secrets.

... inventive romantic subplots woven into adventure?

Rebel Mechanics by Shanna Swendson

If the slow-burn romance between Finley and Griffin, set against a backdrop of rebellion and invention, kept you turning pages, you'll find similar sparks and intrigue between Verity Newton and her enigmatic employer in Rebel Mechanics, where affection and revolution collide in a magic-infused steampunk America.
