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 Master and Margarita
by
Mikhail Bulgakov
David Feucht
, June 04, 2008
I found this book to be really entertaining, subtle and well-written. It gives a satirical but insightful look at what life was like in the 1930's in Russia, a very comical set of events which seem completely fantastical, yet mirror things that actually happened during the time period he was writing the book. I have a feeling this book will warrant several readings to catch everything that is going on - which will be no great burden, as I couldn't put it down the first time. I also find it interesting to read something that was censored and never allowed to be published in full until 35 years after the author's death. To me, that hints that it has something important to say.

Nine Stories
by
J D Salinger
David Feucht
, July 20, 2007
9 short stories by J.D. Salinger about a various range of characters, each of which he somehow manages to make charming and engaging, and each story leaves a distinct impression on the reader. He writes characters that are so ordinary as to be extraordinarily interesting... because they feel like actual people.
