(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...

I can't decide if I like this better than The Corrections, but Franzen has once again produced a gem that by size is intimidating but by all accounts is brilliant. Any person can find some way to relate to this book, as it runs the gamut of human experiences and is highly relevant to our times.

Franzen is a master at delivering absorbing, descriptive stories to which all readers can relate in some way. Despite its intimidating size, the book is easily consumed and leaves the consumer yearning for more pages as they start to diminish. The novel may be his best yet although I have only read The Corrections. I am determined to seek out the rest of his books at my local Powell's so I can continue to feed my addiction!
