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.

Cutting for Stone

This is the best book I have read in awhile. It was one of those books I just didn't want to end. I’ve not read a novel where medicine and the practice of it is a central part of the storytelling process. The medical detail is stunning, but it never overwhelms the humane and narrative aspects of the novel. You end up caring what happens to each and every character and you learn so much about Ethiopia and its rich history......not to mention medical procedures! A great read. This is a book not to miss!
