(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. 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...

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

This is one of my favorite books from my childhood and one I still enjoy today. The adventures of two children who run away from home, live in a museum, and solve an ages old mystery. Children's literature does not get any better!

Year of Living Biblically One Mans Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible
by
A J Jacobs

An excellent book. You do not have to be a religious person in order to enjoy this book. It gives the reader brief glimpses into many religions you otherwise may know nothing about. From the Amish to a snake handling church, you learn many things as well as enjoy AJ Jacobs wry humor. All in all, a great read!

Know It All One Mans Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World
by
A J Jacobs

, August 18, 2008
This was an excellent book. Not only do you get brief glimpses inside Jacobs life, such as his appearance on Who Wants To Be a Millionaire. You also gain the benefit of reading the encyclopedia yourself, only you get to skip the dry boring parts and receive information on such subjects as the first embalming.

World War Z an Oral History of the Zombie War
by
Max Brooks
relda666
, August 11, 2008
This is an excellent book! It varies greatly from Brook's former How to Survive a Zombie Attack, however. You could find the humor in the first, this one is much darker, much more a horror novel than the first. You almost get the feeling that you are reading a true history.

Savage

I am a huge Laymon fan. This book however, was a bit of a disappointment. It is really hard to say why, other than the fact that this one just seems different from his others. All in all though, a great book. I don't think he wrote a bad one.
