Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(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...

The Demon Trapper's Daughter

riley's life is complicated and after she messes up a demon trapper job and her father's partner denver beck, who she had a crush on, picks her up, he goes down. her father dies and because riley already lost her mom a few years back, she now seems to be totally alone. she has no money and the only relative she has is an aunt that hates her so when beck suggest that she moves to her, she refuses. denver beck loved riley's father like he was his own so he decides to take care of the only 17-year old riley. at the beginning their relationship is rough because riley doesn't want beck to help her and beck gets so frustrated when she doesn't listen, but after a while they get closer and become close. but then there is simon, an other young demon trapper, who riley starts to date, but beck obviously doesn't like. the book is funny and beck may seem like a total idiot at the beginning, but the more the story goes on the nicer he gets. i love the book and recommend it to everyone that likes fantasy (close-) future books with a romantic touch.

Throne of Glass

i started reading the book because my best friend absolutely loved it. the book is written really good and i love the main characters. celaena has major conflicts in her life and is more of an anti-hero, but the longer the story goes on and you just have to fall in love with her, because even though she is an assassin, all she wants is to be free and be loved, what seems to be impossible. all she has ever known is death and everyone she loves seems to die. so when the prince comes to get her and offers her a deal, she sees her chance to escape after she served her five years. but things get more and more complicated she likes the people that she meets. chaol (the captain of the guard), nehemia (the princess of an other land) and dorian (the prince) become her friends and she wants to protect them. the book tells a beautiful story about friendship, revenge, love and hatred. even though celaena is very bitter she is funny and still very open and doesn't like to kill.
