I'm reading The Hunt For Vulcan (about Newtonian physics, the solar system, science history, and the long and wobbly road to Einstein, using the once-theorized intra-Mercury planet Vulcan as the story focus) and muccamukk started telling me about A Monkey's Journey. These all sound AMAZING and I know I will be checking out at least a couple of them.

(I grew up a young-earth creationist and there is SO MUCH cool stuff I haven't even heard about! I think I might enjoy the one with all the fossil-related shade, and the Permian extinction, and the monkeys, and the....yeah. 😆😍 Also I appreciate the "hard mode" setting on this, since I never really had a fascination with dinosaurs especially. :D)
