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...

Double Identity
by

, May 15, 2011
Imagine this; your parents throw you into the car, you don’t even have time to pack clothes into your suitcase. Your mom is crying, non-stop, and your dad won’t tell you where you are going. After hours of driving and passing over several state lines, your dad stops the car and tells you to get out in front of a house you have never seen. As you knock on the front door, a strange old lady comes out and says “Bethany! It’s so good to see you!” You are alone with a person who supposedly is related to you, but you have never met them before. In the middle of the night, the phone rings, you rush to it as fast as you can and answer it. You say “Hello! Mommy, daddy is that you?” Your mom screams “Elizabeth! Thank god you’re alright!” Your name isn’t Elizabeth. Then the phone goes dead. The mystery intensifies when Bethany gets a package from her father a couple of days later, containing four different birth certificates from four different states, with four different last names ��" and thousands of dollars in cash. This thrilling and exhilarating story will leave you on the edge of your seat, and throws a twisted ending so shocking that it will leave you speechless. Margrett Haddix raises the stakes in Double Identity.

The Legend of Sleepy Hallow and Rip Van Winkle By: Washington Irving The legend of sleepy hallow is about a man named Ichabod, Who gets taken by the headless horsemen. Then a Man named Brom Bones breaks out into a fight with a lonely villager who tries to sweep Brom Bones girl of her feet. Those two then get put into jail. Then the girls father who is obsessed with being wealthy (rich), and Finds a map of a buried treasure chest. He then grabs four men and goes to the spot. After they dig it up, one of the men dashes with the treasure, the father orders the other two men to chase after him. Then the daughter finds her father almost dead lying in the middle of the forest. The dad gets all better and that’s how the story ends. I do not advise anybody to read this book, it was not only a waste of my time, but the authors time also. Do not read this book!
