Mishkin is more of a classic textbook, but you could read John Hull's Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives if you wanted to understand more how financial assets work.
Cecchetti & Schoenholtz's Money, Banking, and Financial Markets is an option. Mishkin is by far the gold standard in not only economics courses but also MBA classes
I think you should stick to Mishkin's Textbooks. I'm still using them until now and they're really helpful. However, when it comes to derivatives, I use John Hull's Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives. For some reason I find his books reliable for derivatives. But that's just me, hope this helps.

Agreed. Mishkin is always recommended and while there are other good textbooks out there, Frederic's stand the test of time it seems.
