17 Books Inspired by Real Events That Are Both Eye-Opening and Exhilarating

"There's a bit of an extra depth to books inspired by real events. They're often awe-inspiring, even when tragic, and they can make us laugh, cry, or jump for joy. They allow us to appreciate the past and learn something new as we look towards the future. This week's Year of Epic Reads challenge is to read a book inspired by real events. There are books in times of war and times of peace, books based on real historical figures, and books inspired by real eras and locations.
So whether you want something that's rooted in the fact of it all or are just interested in exploring a setting anew, we guarantee that one of these books is perfect for you!"
