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...

Wow. A timely and evocative novel, written in such powerful language it's force is palpable. I couldn't put it down from page one. Jimmy Baca is truly the Sage of the Southwest.

The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America
by

A truly gripping read. So much history and so many things were born at the Chicago World's fair that shape our every day lives--electric lights, Shredded Wheat and the Ferris wheel. The madness of the murders, and why we don't know more about them or recognize them as part of our cultural consciousness is mind boggling! The tenaciousness of the criminal investigation, and trial are also gripping. I could not put this book down. And can't wait until my next trip to Chicago!

More With Less Cookbook
by

Excellent, simple recipes that become repeat hits. The popsicle recipe is a guilt-free, kid-pleaser, to be sure! I have bought copies for all my friends, and my copy is wrinkled, stained and much loved.

Angle of Repose

While moving this spring, I came across my copy of this book and pulled it out to re-read. It has been a welcome escape to settling our own "frontier," to read about the settling of the western frontier. It is written in a language as grand as the landscape it describes. Filled with memorable characters, including the land of the west described in details so minute they become indelibly part of your fiber. A must read (or re-read) for any citizen (or hopeful citizen) of the west.
