(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...

Ecotopia
by
Callenbach, Ernest

, April 25, 2008
This is a wonderful book that begins to explore realities of America's impending environmental crisis. Washington, Oregon, and Northern California have annexed from the United States, creating Ecotopia. Ecotopia has minimal pollution, and once buried streams and rivers have been revived and now flow through the streets. Since Annexing Ecotopia hasn't had a visitor from the United States. And that is what this book is all about.

Da Vinci Code

To Simon Cowell's Fan: A movie is never better than the book. Movies are for the unimaginative, with a book so much is left to the imagination. And for those of you that think the book is poorly written, I must say I was too caught up in the constant cliff hangers to notice the lack eloquence in the writing. Perhaps I shall re-read and look for evidence of the critiques I have just seen, as of now though I must give it a 5.

Watership Down

I agree that at first the rabbits are very unsettling, but as you dig deeper into the book the rabbits move from the realm of unsettling to intriguing. The rabbit perspective makes this book tons of fun.

Ah, the second Christie I ever read. Also a great one, with an incredible twist that leaves the reader shell shocked.

& Then There Were None

This too was my first Christie. I must say I've been hooked on her writing since the very first time I read this book. It is an outstandingly intriguing mystery. Certainly Christie at her finest. No matter how many times you read it never gets old!

Murder On The Orient Express

This truly is one of Agatha's most ingenious works of mystery! Her writing proves pleasing as always, and the mystery has a twist that no one would ever expect. Only Agatha could ever think of ending so shocking.
