Editors Note: Although this list is from 2021, they are still considered books our team recommends related to nature, science or geography. Feel free to post a comment at the end of our post to share with us your favorite books!

Our WenOut team members recently discussed their recommendations on books that inspire or spark curiosity, books that provide insight and history to our region and books that just all around are our favorites. Below are the most loved books of our crew. Some are new books, some have stood the test of time, but we bet there are a few books in this list that you may have never heard of.
