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...

Renewable Energy Made Easy Free Energy from Solar Wind Hydropower & Other Alternative Energy Sources

The world is turning green. Not literally green, but the way of thinking green and it is slowly and surely taking over the world. With myself being the curious type and not wanting to be left behind, I thought it would be a good idea to read up about it. Renewable Energy looked like a good option, and I have to say I wasn't disappointed. For it’s said to be an easy read, I found some of it quite hard to follow, not that the writing was hard to follow, but that the terms that were used weren't fully explained. What could have helped this book a lot would have been the inclusion of some photos or some diagrams of what was being described and maybe some step-by-step guides on how to build or install some of the equipment mentioned in the book. After reading this book I feel a lot more clued up about renewable energy and the options the world has once it runs out of fossil fuels. I think this book would be an excellent resource for anyone wanting to make renewable energy part of their career or a college student doing a project on renewable energy.

How to Open & Operate a Financially Successful Pet Sitting Business With Companion CD ROM

If you want to work with animals and get paid for it, this is the book for you. Not only does it show you how to set up a viable business it also shows you how to keep it running and make it grow at the same time. Overall, I liked the writing of the book. It was light-hearted and easy to understand. I also liked how the book gets you in the right frame of mind to start a new business. Not only would it be useful for those who are just starting out in the business of pet sitting, but it would be very useful for someone looking for new ideas for their already formed business. The book is well written and not many bad things can be pointed out, but I would say that it goes a little overboard with the details that state the obvious which most people would make out for themselves. Saying this, sometimes the simplest thing can slip a person's mind and it doesn't cause harm to have it included in the book. I would strongly recommend this to anyone wanting to set up their own pet sitting business.
