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...

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
by

When I started this story I didn't think I would like it at all. Well this book proved me wrong because pretty soon I was head over heels for it, hungry to find out more. The adventure is incredible and engaging, a great classic!

Two Princesses Of Bamarre
by
Gail Carson Levine
sadisticartist
, August 28, 2010
This was a class book we were supposed to read together in my 3d grade class. I loved the book and read it as far as my teacher would let me. But I had to move away in the middle of the year before we could finish the book. So my teacher gave me a copy of that book to keep and wrote a little something inside it for me. I love this book so much and its still on my shelf to this day. I feel weak both inside and out like Addie did at the begining of the story, and so I hope as I get older and learn more I can become strong and brave like she was. A wonderful book, in my opinon it was Levine's best!

Natsumes Book Of Friends 1
by
Yuki Midorikawa
sadisticartist
, August 28, 2010
A very interesting Graphic Novel about a boy can see spirits. He discovers a book that belonged to his Grandmother, where she wrote down and bound certian spirits to her. She called that her 'book of friends'. Natusme makes it his goal to go around and free every spirit that was bound by the book. In doing so he makes more friends and allies, while learning more about his Grandmother. A wonderful book, but it can seem slightly bland at times.

Good Earth

When I was in 8th grade I had to read this book for class. I was having an odd time at school, it was like a roller coaster of emotions, one day could be good and the other bad. I finished this book before the class was done with it. It was like my little get away. I cried and I smiled and I cheered them on, its a wonderful book. I should probably get a copy for myself soon.

Running Out Of Time

A time warp story! Here is an example, imagine you live in the 1920's but its really 2010! Well in this story she has to deal with that fact that she is living in a town that is set in the 1800's! And its actually the late 90's! Can we say crazy!!

Sometimes you think you've had ENOUGH Star Wars, there is just so many books! So many games...so many geeks! But wait! Did you love Han Solo and Princess Leia? Well this series is about their twin children Jacen and Jaina and their friends at their 'Uncle Luke's' Jedi Academy. You don't have to read all the books before that to get it, though you can. Its easy to read with a great story line!

Cassandra Clare
sadisticartist
, August 25, 2010
Sometimes when you've read too many fantasy books jammed packed with goblins, demon's and angels you really get sick of it. But don't give up yet! Cassandra Clare has created a dazzling book that leaves you breathless with excitment. Moments where you urge Clary on, want to slap Jace's face or give Simon a big huge are moments where you realize how great this book is.

Witch & Wizard 01
by
James Patterson, Gabrielle Charbonnet
sadisticartist
, August 25, 2010
James Patterson has done it again! He has created protagonist's that have enough sarcasm in their vocabulary to keep your eyebrow's quirking and your fingers turning the pages. You laugh at their insults to authority, cheering them on when they've escaped. As always James Patterson has created a masterpiece in a kind of modern day salem witch trials, where the grown ups are wacky.

Tramps Like Us Volume 1
by
Yayoi Ogawa
sadisticartist
, August 21, 2010
Tramps Like Us, the title is somewhat deciving, when you read it you might wrinkle your nose thinking its some sort of dirty book. Really thats a big misunderstanding. There IS some mature content in here that is true but not explicit. It is a wonderful almost heart-warming series that will make you sqeal at the cute Momo and the serious Sumire. wonderful book! Probably for 14+ depending on your level of maturity
