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.

Ill Never Get Out of This World Alive
by
Steve Earle
Adele Pelletier
, September 01, 2011
You might think a book with a dead Hank Williams as a character would be a bit bizarre, and maybe this book is, but I prefer to consider it mystical. It is an engaging book, with a cast of unadmirable folks selling, using and trying to recover from drugs with a protagonist you hope wins his struggle and regains his self respect. I ahve always enjoyed Steve Earle's music, and hear the same voice throughout this compelling read. Well worth the time.

by

Adele Pelletier
, January 07, 2010
Evocative of the rural school I attended, Doig weaves a story of the protagonist in the present with his boyhood life in rural Montana. An enjoyable read where the ending is not telegraphed throughout.
