(0 comment)
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...

Layers within layers. Stories not only within stories, but they are inexorably linked by the most gossamer of threads of beauty, drama and, yes, love.

I felt like I could just taste everything the main character made. I felt like I was one of her customers, yet also privy to her life in the kitchen, that was a character unto itself. The bantering with the family and the customers were heartfelt, poignant and just funny at times. I loved the story that was told at the beginning of the chapter and how it seemed to parallel to foreshadow what would happen next. And then there was the love between two people helping to find themselves and their place in America and the World. Yes, food and love; love and food.
