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...

Eldest: Book II
by

Most of the time when and author or a screen writer makes a great first hit people dread the second release because everybody knows that the second one is always worst than the original. EXCEPT for Paolini. In his first book of the dragon series his readers laughed when his dragon Saphira would say something unimaginable for a dragon to say. Paolinis readers also cryed when they both get into brothals and dont know how to get out. So the first book was exceptanal. (sorry about my spelling, im a reader not a writer) And you would think the second book wouldn't be as good right? Wrong, the second book was worth buying a new copy everytime you read it because your so into it your ganrunteed to tear up the pages.

Death Of A Darklord Ravenloft

This is one great book.......I love how Hamilton doesnt focus on writing so verbatimly in her books because there's nothing worse than to feel like a story is dragging on and on and on. I love how Hamilton also seems to just perfectly capture everything so presice it makes you feel like your right there in the story with the characters. Honestly, after reading eragon and eldest by Cristopher Paolini I wasn't sure that I could find a book to match eldest, and I was right I didn't but it was so close most people wouldn't even notice. PS: it was absolutely great....... ~Hugh
