Brightly Woven by Alexandra Bracken
4.0
Once I got into this, I couldn't put it down. Read the entire thing in a day. Action, adventure, and a unique magic system.
Takes the traditional female skill of weaving and turns it into something magical. The main character never waits to be rescued and takes charge of her own life, asking for what she wants. The charming love interest wins you over despite a few issues with bad hygiene and some questionable decisions. MC models a willingness to forgive mistakes
It doesn't tie everything up neatly at the end, so you keep thinking about possibilities with the characters living on in your mind.
