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...

The Art of Racing in the Rain
by
Garth Stein

, January 18, 2011
Every Christmas my mother likes to buy my siblings and I a book whose content relates to where we are in our lives. The joke is that we always try to figure out the connection she has made between the book and us because sometimes we just don't see it. This Christmas I received The Art of Racing in the Rain which was appropriate because I had just gotten my first dog back in September. I wasn't thrilled when I got it, thinking it was just another dog book about owner/dog bonding and let's face it, all the dogs die in the end. I was done reading in a day. I just couldn't put it down and was happy my first impression was wrong. This book is much deeper then the relationship between dog and owner. It's life through the dog's eyes but a very philosophical outlook. As dog's cannot speak, they observe, and this dog's observation of the events of his owner's life is worth reading.

American Gods
by
Neil Gaiman
Kathleen Walsh
, January 01, 2011
This book blew my mind. I have always been a fan of Neil Gaiman but American Gods took to me a whole new level of appreciation. The depth of characterization and the incorporation of the mythology was well blended. I could not put the book down.
