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...

Her Fearful Symmetry
by
Audrey Niffenegger

Is it a twin story? Is it a ghost story? Is it a tale of romance which surmounts death? This novel is deliciously difficult to classify and will keep your attention riveted until the final page is turned. It is fresh -- if I'd read "Time Traveler's Wife" and "Her Fearful Symmetry" from anonymous manuscript submissions, I could not have guessed they were the same author -- aside from being thoroughly engaged by each story, of course. Niffenegger can wait six years between books if she continues to provide us with novels this engaging!

This was assigned reading in two different book clubs I belong to -- and it was a winner with both groups. This is science fiction which doesn't read like science fiction. I'm a sci-fi fan, but none of the other members of my books club are, yet they loved this book. Highly recommended, especially for book clubs -- it generated lots of discussion!
