I second the book @greenwitch suggested, Krakatoa: The Day the World Exploded. It really is fascinating. Also Lauren Hillenbrand’s Seabiscuit book.

Two health-related books which oddly are can’t-put-it-down reads: The Demon Under the Microscope, and The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History.

My mom recently reminded me of a book I read in junior high, and I have put it on my list: Kon-Tiki by Thor Heyerdahl.
