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...

This Is Not A Game

Great read! Very believable and suspenseful. The concept of using a gaming community to solve a real murder and find out real information was awesome. I loved this book!

City of the Sun

I thought this was an amazing debut novel, it's very suspenseful and has great characters (especially the detective Frank Behr). It's also very emotional. I'm glad there's already another Behr book out (Where the Dead Lay), so I don't have to wait before reading more.

The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio: How My Mother Raised 10 Kids on 25 Words or Less
by

I adored this book. It made me want to enter contests, too! The pictures of the vintage contest entry slips here and there just add to the whole charming book. Even though the time period is mostly the 50's and 60's, it can still inspire you to make the very most of what you have, and to be appreciative.

Fake: Forgery, Lies, & Ebay

This was a very quick, easy, and enjoyable read. You can't excuse Mr. Walton's actions, but you can see how it happened. This was probably one of the best non-fiction books I've read quite in a while. It will sure make me look at e-Bay with a sharper eye!

This was a great sequel! Lots of intrigue and action, a very likable main character, just an excellent read all around. I highly recommend it (as well as the book before this one, The Courier)!

Darker Side

Cody McFadyen is my new favorite mystery/thriller writer. The team of FBI agents that catch serial killers, lead by Smoky Barrett, are a memorable cast of characters that I really enjoy reading about. I look forward to more from Cody!!

Heart Shaped Box
by

Excellent book...it's a fast-paced roller coaster ride all the way. Joe Hill has got the art of story-telling down pat, and I can't wait to see what he writes next! Right now I'm reading his first book, 20th Century Ghosts, and enjoying the short stories. Some are sweet, some are really creepy, all are good so far. Keep 'em coming, Joe!
