The Adventurous Reader - Page 6

A medium length list of adventurous books. There are many I have in my library but have not read yet, and many more that I have read. The ratio is about 40 percent non-fiction and 60 percent fiction. The genres vary, but I tried to include books that are fairly upbeat, have a high impact ending, or are very popular as books or as movies. Enjoy!
