Adventure Reads That Keep You Up All Night

Adventure isn’t dead. It’s just waiting for you on the next page. Host Joe Skelley is joined by Amy Allen Clark (@momadvice) and creator Joe Zawada (@joezawadareads) to keep the adventure conversation going with a stack of adventure stories that bring the danger, drama, twists and absolutely zero respect for your bedtime. From high stakes journeys to impossible odds and the kind of books that make “I’ll read one chapter” a hilarious lie, we’re sharing adventure book recommendations that will keep you reading all night. If you’re looking for your next great adventure read, consider this your very official excuse to ignore your sleep schedule. Looking for the video version of our show?
