In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick
challenging
dark
tense
medium-paced
5.0
Ok so clearly I am a sucker for true tales of shipwreck and survival. The story pulls you in as you anxiously await tragedy to befall. And once it does, you are useless in preventing any suffering.
