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 a wonderful mystery. Patricia Wentworth is great at having interesting background characters and Miss Silver, the retired governess is a great and penetrating detective. I've read about 10 Miss Silver stores, and they are great.

It brings back the Greek myths in an enjoyable way. I hope this series of books will renew interest in the myths. The book is enjoyable and reminds me of the Harry Potter series.

This Republic of Suffering Death & the American Civil War

This is a very good book. The professor's brilliance comes through. She has concluded about the American view of death pre civil war (the good death) and does not really consider alternatives. The in depth discussion of mourning customs is very much worth the read as is the discussion of poetry and the arts. Overall, a great book. I would have liked more breadth in the discussion of death culture.
