Great list! Do you think All's Well by Mona Awad would fit? It's not a retelling per se but it centers one of Shakespeare's plays and uses Shakespearean elements throughout the story
Also, I haven't read it myself but I know If We Were Villains has quite a lot of Shakespeare in it, although if I understand correctly it's not a retelling either
