Now I've started In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick and read by Scott Brick (a duo of bricks!). It's a non-fiction book about, well, the title says a lot of it. The ship was sunk by a whale in the middle of the South Pacific in the early 19th century and the crew had to try and survive for months.
I'm really excited to finally get to read this. The book has a lot of notes and things like that so it's going to be a little odd listening to it (the notes section at the end is apparently about two hours by itself, lol) but it will be interesting to see how it goes. I already had the ebook so i can always refer to that if needed.

Just as a note, the Essex was the basis for Moby Dick.
