Recs if you like Tress of the Emerald Sea...

Seafaring stories and Little Mermaid-esque tales! (I'm excluding classics and books that just take place on the ocean but don't have any speculative elements, even my baby Moby Dick😭)

About remembering and feeling seen. (Either in the plot or only in a specific character)

Just sweet protagonists who don't have to be badass to be strong

Standalone fantasy books that won't make you invest your life in a dozen installments
