Books like Divergent but make it fantasy?

Book Request 📚

So I adored the concept of Divergent a lot, Tris learning skills, becoming a badass, surving all while falling in love, not letting no man hold her back, fighting alongside him etc. Just love it. I found that same feeling in Fourth Wing and it reignited my love for that trope(?). I'm not huge into dystopia nowadays, loving fantasy. I feel like I've read a lot of romantasy at this point but none of them scratch that itch.

Loved/Favorites: Fourth Wing, Discovery of Witches, Legend Born, Blood of Hercules, One Dark Window, City of Gods and Monsters

Dislikes/DNF: every single series by Sarah J Maas (I'm sorry, the writing is not great to me and cannot keep my interest). Fey Spy Academy series, Quicksilver, The Plated Prisoner Series

There's a lot of books/series I found to just be okay, has fun reading them but probably won't read again.

Would love recommendations cheap on Kindle or on Kindle Unlimited! I prefer some spice but can be pretty dang tame, I like everything between some and all the time usually.
