(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...

Wow, good story. It's quirky and silly. Near the middle it feels like it's not going anywhere-- then the next thing you know, you're crying. Twice. Lovely story with a good ending. Recommended & Honorable Mention Yes/No Checklist Sex: No Gore: No Rape: No Magic: Yes Drugs: No Star Categories Romance: N/A Action: 3 Stars *Not much action in this, but a few heart-pounding spots. Pacing: 3 1/2 Stars *It seems to drag in the middle. Writing: 5 Stars Plot: 4 Stars *It brings to mind a certain movie, but still really good. Overall: 4.5 Stars Protagonist Meter Damsel---------*-Badass She shows her real talents at the end and she could be quite formidable.

Would Be Witch

I decided to read this book because I needed something light and fun. What I didn't expect was to fly through the series in a matter of days. I just couldn't put them down. They are fun-- lots of fun. The story is deceptively complex, but not hard to follow. I recently heard that the author plans to add a few more titles to this series and I can't wait to fly through those too. Yes/No Checklist Sex: Yes *But it's pretty well brushed over. Gore: Sorta *A little blood and wounds. Rape: No Magic: Oh Yeah! Drugs: Alcohol, cigarettes, and potions ;) Star Categories Romance: 4.5 Stars Action: 4.5 Stars *It never stopped! Pacing: 5 Stars *Boy, did this story move. Writing: 4 Stars Plot: 5 Stars *Deceptively complex story. Overall: 4.5 Stars Protagonist Meter Damsel-----*-----Badass I might as well put her in the middle. She's got the potential to be a kick butt witch, but it hasn't been realized quite yet. I'm truly hoping that we get some awesomeness from her in the future.
