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.

Things I Never Told My Mother
by
Um Daoud
A reviewer
, February 11, 2007
Um Daoud, with her years of living and working among Muslims, has once again given us a realistic picture of life for Muslim women. This time, in Things I Never Told My Mother, she illustrates the life of thousands who live in more secular Muslim countries and the struggle they face between Western influences on their societies and what little they know of Islam. Readers will realize through this book that the Muslim community is much more complex than the stereo-typical terrorist version portrayed in the media. Things I Never Told My Mother will do much to increase the average reader’s understanding of the Muslim world.
