It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Flight Behavior

Although many reviews have described it as a novel about climate change - and although the natural (or rather, unnatural) events that unfold in the novel are gripping and well-developed, what drew me in to the book was the main character. It is her journey, the opening up of her life to new possibilities, that kept me reading. Beautifully written.

Best book I've read this year - in fact, the best novel I've read in years. Vividly descriptive, and great fun to read.

Lost City of Z A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon
by
David Grann
Fay
, January 08, 2011
A very well-written account of Fawcett's obsession to find the lost city, as well as the travails of everyone who subsequently attempted to find Fawcett, and of course the author's adventures in following in all of their footsteps. Vivid descriptions of the jungle environment should be required reading for anyone who is casually thinking of undertaking such a trip.
