I understand your point. It's definitely not for everybody. But I think the point was that it's not all serious or sad.

Endurance was a great book. Brought to mind another great book "Skeletons on the Zahara" by Dean King.

Chronicles the hardships encountered by twelve American sailors who, in 1815, were shipwrecked on the coast of North Africa, captured, sold into slavery, and sent on a difficult odyssey through the perilous heart of the Sahara.

The Wager has been the best book I have read in a couple years. Really well done.

I enjoyed reading Operation Mincemeat, it was the last book my father and I read and talked about before he died a few years ago.

I just finished The Revenant (movie was based on this book). Very well written and very well researched. Seeing the movie will not spoil the book. The string of events and especially the ending are very different in the book.
