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...

Warriors 01 Into the Wild

Something wrestles in the undergrowth, your heart beats faster and faster until you can hardly control your fear. This is life for Firepaw, a young male cat that had dreamed of adventure in the forest before meeting the cats of Thunderclan. Before, he was a ''kitty-pet'' for the Two-legs, but now he has been taken in by the Thunderclan to become a Warrior. I think this book is a great read for readers that love cats, fiction, and adventure. This book really makes you wonder what might haunt the family cat?

Stuck In Neutral
by

You can't walk, you can't talk, you can't do anything but sit there and listen. Shawn McDaniel is an enigma and a miracle--except no one knows it, he takes you through his life and explains living with his disease called cerebral palsy.(C.P.) This book digs down, down deep in to Shawn's past and his relationships with his family and for the most part his Dad, which makes this book unforgettable. This surprising book is a tear-jerkier for all ages, with vivid detail that captures the true meaning of love, devotion, and how we don't know what we have until it's gone. Terry Trueman expresses Shawn's feelings in ways that only he can. I think this book is a must read for anyone that loves Fiction.

Chronicles of Prydain 01 Book Of Three
by
Lloyd Alexander

At every page there is a drop off that beckons you to read on, The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander is suspenseful, unpredictable, and a vivid adventure for all readers that love fantasy. The main character, in this epic novel, is Taran a know-it-all assistant pig keeper that yearns to become a hero or become a someone. The journey starts when Tarans pig, Hen Wen, escapes from her den and flees to the woods where Tarans quest begins. With danger lurking at every corner, Tarans world turns upside down while meeting some strange and unusual friends along the way. This magical book reminds me of a mix between Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. The Book has a sprinkle of Harry Potter's witches and spells and a touch of Lord of the Ring's friendship and adventure. I think with Lloyd Alexander's vivid imaginative writing with his twists and turns, this book is a must read for all fantasy lovers.
