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...

Defending Jacob
by
Landay, William

Defending Jacob is one of the most sensational books I have read in a long time. Move over James Patterson, John Grisham and David Baldacci as you now have some heavy competition This is a story about a family and how there life is turned upside down when the DA's son is accused of murdering a child who goes to the same school. The family lives in an upscale area and this is something that is just not expected but just what will a father do to defend his son and prove him innocent. We find out secrets that his wife Laurie never knew about his family although they have been married for years and there almost comes a point where both mother and father wonder if in fact there son could be a suspect? As if the trial and everything leading up to it is not enough you think you are done but mr Landay has more in store for the reader and you won't be able to put it down and won't want to as the book is fantastic from page one to the very end. A must read for anyone who enjoys a mystery this is GREAT

It really opened my eyes to how "The Help" was treated and how mean and cruel the people they worked for were. It is sad to have imagined white people could be so cruel and ignorant of others. It is a must read and should be a part of your racing if you have not already read it

Lets Take the Long Way Home A Memoir

If you want to read a touching, loving and inspiring story then make sure it is this book that you choose. The gift of friendship is one many of us take for granted and when life is cut short it changes things and puts them into prospective for two best friends who are both writers in Boston. I think Gail Caldwell has a way with words that will keep you talking and more importantly recommending this book to all your friend I know cause I did A must read.
