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...

Sunshine

Sunshine, the novels titular heroine, is a stream of consciousness narrator who leads the reader on a nonstop page turning adventure. From cockroaches the size of chiuauas to moonlit lakeside mansions, and a vampire much more compelling then Edward any day; Robin Mckinley has written one of her best beauty and the beast variations yet. We all have our comfort reads. books what we turn to again and again and can read from cover to cover with as much pleasure the twentieth time as the very first. and Sunshine is amongst mine.

Jesse Owens: Young Record Breaker

I read this aloud as part of African American history month for my class. Consistently the children expressed enjoyment in the story and wondered what Jesse would do, as well as curiousity about how the time in which he lived was so different from how they live today (in the ways people interacted with one another). I did skip reading the first chapter aloud as I felt for some of my younger students it was too intense; however, I did give them an idea of what happened so they could understand what was being referred to in later chapters.
