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...

City Of Dreaming Books

What an imagination! I loved this book, it is full of adventure and wit with just enough crazy attached. An author of a a different kind on search for another author who's name is not known to him. His journey take him on adventures he could ot imagine into dangers we could not imagine all in search of the one who could write such a moving piece of work. Brilliant!

Book Of The Dead
by
Patricia Cornwell

, July 28, 2009
Corn well is at her best in this spellbinding Scarpetta novel. There are changes happening in Scarpetta’s personal life some as dreadful as the bodies that are found. At first seemingly unrelated all the cases build to a shocking revelation. The story flows at a steady pace, keeping you turning the pages and trying to solve the crimes. A great read, I could not put it down.

This is a great story, a bit slow starting out, but once you get into to it you can't put it down. The characters are interesting and the story line never predictable. The look into the world of this drunk is fascinating and the developing relationships in the book are touching. A most enjoyable read.

Olivia Joules & The Overactive Imaginati
by
Helen Fielding
Judith Brink
, January 09, 2008
If you enjoyed Bridget Jones you will love Olivia Joules. What a joy to read, fun, fast moving and packed with adventures, this girl definately has more guts than brains. There is also some great wisdom to be found in Ms. Joules "rules to live by", the book is worth it for the rules alone. Have fun with this one.

Infidel

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

, January 09, 2008
I bought this book on a whim and it has been well worth it. Living in Africa one finds it hard to accept that the things talked about in this book do still happen around us today. The book is written beautifully, the content often shocking but thought provoking, expecially the relationships between mothers and daughters.

I loved this book. So simple and yet so true. Valuable lessons can be learnt easily from this interesting story. An easy read and well worth reading more than once. A beautiful version of 'stop and smell the flowers'.
