Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(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...

Little Ree
by
Ree Drummond, Jacqueline Rogers
Claudia
, April 12, 2017
I love this woman's voice. Well, Okay, I love her recipes too but it is her style that makes everything appealing. She is a perfect, down-home person. Her cooking is easy and delicious. I love having my children watch her shows and read her books because she teaches family values and work ethic. Add that to great recipes which are easy to prepare and you have a winning combination.

13 Hours The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi
by
Mitchell Zuckoff
Claudia
, October 23, 2014
For two years I wondered what happened. There have been so many opinions and versions making it very confusing. Finally, the heros who were there and risked their lives have put me out of my misery and told the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I read the book in less than the 13 Hours it took them to live it and I cried the entire time.

The Joy of Hate: How to Triumph over Whiners in the Age of Phony Outrage
by
Greg Gutfeld
Claudia
, August 22, 2014
Sarcastic? No. Plain speaking and truthful. And yes, sometimes the truth hurts. Be careful of Greg. As you read his books you'll swear he is reading your mind. Some ideas I never thought of. Great to hear him verbalize my thoughts on other things.

Not Cool The Hipster Elite & Their War On You
by
Greg Gutfeld
Claudia
, March 24, 2014
I love reading Greg’s words because he writes like he speaks. If you watch his eyes when he is asked a question you can see the light flash as he comes up with a metaphor that makes everything crystal clear and usually makes you laugh out loud. His book is the same. It’s filled with interesting metaphors that are easy to relate to every day life and then you wonder how he is reading your thoughts especially when you haven’t expressed some of them verbally. You just know he is channeling you and you aren’t alone.

Heart

Wow. What an emotional story. His struggles are inspirational. I have always greatly admired the Vice President and now even more so because of his truth and honesty in sharing his deep thoughts on survival and life.

Never Trust a Liberal Over Three Especially a Republican
by
Ann Coulter
Claudia
, October 22, 2013
The review I read said I’ve never seen Ann like this before but I have news for the reviewer. Ann Coulter is always uncensored and unafraid to speak the truth. That is what I enjoy so much ��" pure, unadulterated truth. No mockery either. Just politics as Ann sees and tells it.

I love the way Charles cuts to the chase and does not mince words. I have looked forward to this book since I have enjoyed reading his columns for so long and now I can read his works all at once.

Charlie the Ranch Dog Charlies Snow Day
by
Ree Drummond, Diane De Groat
Claudia
, October 15, 2013
Charlie may be a ranch dog but his owner is a great storyteller. I love Ree's voice. She sounds like a dear friend and I only know her from television. Another great read by the Pioneer Woman.

I not only love Ree's home cooking, I love her voice. And watching Ree make the recipes on her TV show is just icing on the cake.

Ruthless
by
Anne Stuart

It doesn't matter which of Anne's books I read, they are all wonderful. I have been reading and enjoying all of The House of Rohan books and the latest, Shameless, was the best.

It has a love story but isn't a romance. It is about hard working people determined to survive and be happy.

I have had a hard time finding a Vegan cook book. This is the best I've read yet _and_ Powell's has autographed copies. Nothing better.

Passionate Patchwork Over 20 Original Quilt Designs
by
Kaffe Fassett
Claudia
, September 02, 2006
Most reviews I've read about Kaffe Fassett start, "If you love color you'll love Kaffe Fassett." And, oh, that is so true. What the reviews don't say is it doesn't matter if you love color or shades of beige. When you create a quilt using Kaffe's unique designs or fabrics you will be passionate about Kaffe Fassett.
