I enjoyed One River [amazon] quite a bit. I would give it a shot if you're in any way interested in plants. Plus a little anthropology never hurt anyone.
While I've wanted to go to the Amazon since I was a kid, One River was the final inspiration for me to pull the trigger back in 2015.
It was pretty much exactly as I imagined it. Animals all over the place, unbearably hot, a totally different culture and way of life. One of my favorite trips to date, and I will be going back soon.
One River by Wade Davis is another great one which I had never heard of until Chris Ryan had Davis on his podcast last year.
