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...

The Glass Castle: A Memoir

I loved this book because it was filled with deplorable circumstance, but a daughter's genuine yearning to find the best in her parents, despite their bad decisions and (frankly) bad parenting.

Musical Chairs

This book is hard to find, but it's well worth it. I don't like ordering things from Amazon, but it seems to be the only option right now. I wanted to order a copy for my sister. Here's my review: (I also posted on Amazon) RE: Musical Chairs, ISBN: 9780984259427 There's a lot going on in Musical Chairs. It's the story of a runaway girl, a scatter-shot but endearing family, the elusive nature of trauma and mental illness, and the sweetness of unexpected romance. As far as memoirs go, I highly recommend this book.
