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.

Doorkeepers
by
Graham Masterton
missn
, January 17, 2008
very frightening and well written book. they say Graham Masterton is another Steven King. He is good yes but not as scary as Steven King in my eyes because i can not read a Steven King book he is to scary. Graham Masterton comes close thought with this book and all the other book i have read of his so far this is a must read book.

Conversations with Anne Rice
by
Michael Riley
missn
, November 01, 2007
this book is a wonderful book. it lets you get to know the lady who wrote the vampire chronicles and understand her differently than you may have. Seeing since Anne Rice no longer writes about Lestat and is writeing books about jesus it is sort of strange for all her fans of the vampire chronicles. i mean when i pictured her when i read the vampire chronicle books i pictured a gothic lady who was very weird and did not belive in god. now we all know her husband died and she has stopped writeing the vampire chronicles and other dark horror stories or science fiction stories but this book says to me that anne rice truley belived in god before she ever started the vampire chronicles. it is a older book yes it is from way before her husband died and all but if you are a real Anne Rice fan you might want to read this book beacuase it give you the knowledge of who this woman really is. who knows you might like it

Darrell Schweitzer

, October 10, 2007
this is a very good book. i do admit though the first story in it is dull and confusing almost makes you think you made a bad purchase or whatever. if you read on through it it is pretty good id buy it again if i didn't still have it

Shining
by
Stephen King
missn
, September 12, 2007
The shining was a very good book. I would say it was much scarier than the two movies made from it. Although the original movie was closer to the way the book is than the remake of it.With all Steven Kings books and movies you get to like certain characters and feel sorry for them when bad things happen. I really liked the little boy Danny. This is one of those books i could read a dozen or more times and not get tired of it.

missn
, September 08, 2007
Even though peter benchley did not write this book it is just as good as his original jaws. It scares you of the water for a while or at least it did me. Although iv read nothing else by this perticular author id say if i found something else by him i would read it. He is a very good writer

I read everyone of the Grimms fairy tales when i got this book. Some in my eyes are alittle bit mature for young children but still amusing. I loved them all and wish they had made more
