Carlo Rovelli has explained all of physics like a story. He starts from the idea of the existence of atoms to quantum physics. He includes all the physicists that worked in their fields and what was their inspiration and goals. I think it's a really great book to understand science, as it explains the works of each generation of physicists, what was missing in their work and how that was fulfilled by the next generation.
