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...

Divergent 01

I really enjoyed this book. It had a familiar feeling of The Hunger Games in the begining, but was a very origional book at the same time. The main character is unique and strong and someone who you root for. I loved the action and romance. It was a great page turning book and I just really loved it.

Immortal Beloved 01

I don't want to provide a summary because people read these to see if people liked the book or not and I think a summary gives some suspense away. I couldn't stop reading this book and when I wasn't reading it I couldn't stop thinking about this book. First the main charactor Nasty has problems and is more relatable because she has major conflicts just like real people. She wants to become a better person, but she still has a great edge to her. Also, the romance was fantastic. There isn't immediate feelings of this at first which I think makes the romance more real and realatable. But mainly I liked it because there is a major conflict of what one person did to the other carrying much more substance then just two people easilly falling in love. This book also had you trying to guess(in a good way) who the charactors really were as to what they've done in the past and what their true feelings or morals are. Lastly the book had a more fictional edge with having the immortals having magic which made it very interesting, added more to the characters, and added a specific origionality to it. I loved this book and I'd recommend it to everyone.
